    manuel....but when you change it from .tif to jpeg...it seems to add some noise to it.

    it seems like too much contrast and brightness..it throws off the color a bit too? no?
    its not really that orange looking is it?

    its a little bright ...but the color is about that orange.

    How old is the camera and how many pixels is the pic?
    Family, kids, coins, sports (playing not watching), jet skiing, wakeboarding, Big Air....no one ever got hurt in the air....its the sudden stop that hurts. I hate Hurricane Sandy. I hate FEMA and i hate the blasted insurance companies.

    jpeg is lossy so no avoiding that. I think you want to change the contrast just a bit. That will help. I just calibrated my monitor with a colorimeter and on my monitor it appears a bit washed out. To be fair, a lot of pics I took myself are looking a bit washed out as well. Have something new to master...
