Thanks for the reply. If you search for the image online there’s another version that looks a bit more natural. I think this one has been retouched as it’s more crisp with more contrast with a bluer sky. But I can’t be sure because I’m just a caveman. Look at the different versions. Which do you think is representative of the real oil on canvas? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] IMALlama@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (1 child) Man, color in photographs and color on screens can be quite the rabbit hole... Many consumer screens, especially phones, display colors very differently. Likewise, most cameras (phones, DSLRs, MLIC, etc) will render straight out of the camera JPEGs with various degrees of tweaks (more contrast, saturation, etc). Take a photo of the same thing with two different cameras and then view the results on two different screens. You'll get a total of four different results. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] owen@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 years ago Totally. Not to mention that post processing settings on TVs could make two identical models present radically different pictures permalink fedilink source parent [–] teft@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (1 child) I totally thought it was AI rendered. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] NexiusLobster@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago I thought it was a photograph at first. permalink fedilink source parent
