That is a lot more vivid than I have ever seen out of any other D60...what are you using to process/archive/convert your photos? I have a friend that suspects iPhoto auto adjusts stuff that goes through as his compact looks like it has a permanent Velvia
mode...but didnt when we downloaded and viewed photos without going through iPhoto.

I used to have a vivid setting but it was very blue, have since gone back to normal. Downloaded through Elements 7 and adjusted levels in CS3, can't see how the colour should change?

Hmmm none of that sounds like it would be doing anything to affect the colours...maybe the D60 does have super saturated colours like that? I'll have a look at my mates one and get back to you....I will have to annoy him because he has my tripod QR plate (my only non-Manfrotto one!)

Whoa, those colours are rich! For me, the pick is the 2nd image. I'd like to see the same scene with early morning or late afternoon light slanting across the scene - I think that would look special.

The pics are two seperate days, but about the same time - shadows nearly gone after 4. The subject was in shadow when taken.

Hi,
the colours of 2 & 3 make them very appealing and commercial as postcards/calendars but I rather like the gums in #1 and the shot looks more realistic to me - just for fun try it as an oil painting in
PS Just out of interest what is the peak in the background ?

Why have the 2nd and 3rd images been replaced with this:

The pics are still there on my computer - do you have a bug?

They're back - how strange
. I don't think the problem was at my end - why would only the 2nd and 3rd pics disappear? I thought there might have been an issue on the server where the images were located. No big deal, I guess.
