The hardest thing about not being a "real" photographer...

I am far from an expert on printer profiling, but it's possible to calibrate your printer and your monitor so that they match provided the image management system you use allows for the controlling of prints. Just as you can calibrate monitors you can build printer profiles so that the image coming from your printer matches what you see on your monitor. But it's not just the printer you need a profile for but also each type of paper you use in the printer. Epson Matte will be different from HP Matte, and last year's version of a paper may differ from this year's. Thankfully my brother is an expert and once my monitor is calibrated all I need to do is send him a pair of prints of a profiling color grid on a new type of paper and he'll send me the calibration file in 1 to 100 days. LOL

Very useful info, thanks... - "he'll send me the calibration file in 1 to 100 days. LOL" - Family, right? We always get the bottom of the pile... hehehe :cool:

No is was in camera right(in front of me)

Yeah, I can see the shadow of his nose. Great light. Much more control than a speedlight I guess? You can actually see how the light will affect the subject before you take the shot and move (either the light or the camera) accordingly...
