Day 449 – 2Scan or not 2Scan
Here is Day 3 of the Purple series. This one highlights the difference between the scanned image and the photo image. The Scanned image shows the look I was going for. A continuation of yesterday’s wave, but you don’t see the sharp colors. hopefully the photo below portrays that.
and
as you can see
the scanned version
does not show the colors
half as well.
and here
is the image
in it’s
original state.
Interesting comparison. Straight out of the scanner, nothing looks quite right – always do a quick adj in Picassa or more detailed in PS. Love the purple swirls! ~ Tammy
Thanks Tammy. Even my black and white scans need some tweaking of brightness & contrast after they have been scanned in. So glad you like the purple swirls…. I have more of that coming in the next few days.
I always scan my doodles and I almost always have to tweak the color. I often use highlighters and the scanner really doesn’t get those well at all. Orange highlighter seems to be the worst. But sometimes I just dig that day-glo pop even if I can’t share the effect. I like to think it’s a nice little surprise for someone when they someday see some of these in person 🙂
