Today the thread will have an improved structure. Sections will be clearly defined. Any ideas are also welcome. It will follow a similar structure like the note2 thread.

Suggest merge 2 pics as one in 1st post. The 3rd one no need be there. smile.gif

If possible make the photo background transparent, I can help u did that if you prefer. smile.gif

Here you go, just use below direct link, and it will be background transparent, currently I only notice Flickr support background transparent.

andrewtst thanks for the merge and transparency. You are credited at the end of post 1.

Would you mind telling me how it's done? What software is used?
*
Welcome. smile.gif

I use Adobe Photoshop. smile.gif
  • Create a blank file with transparent background.
  • Use Magic Wand tools to select your file by clicking the white area.
  • Inverse the selection.
  • Then Modified - Feather and choose 1 or 2 depends on file size.
  • Copy the selected file to your 1st create transparent background file.
  • Save it as PNG. Done.

There are a lot of software that do that.
I always use GIMP for transparency.

By the way, I think the photo is quite big size. With my fast Internet speed, it still takes some time to load the photo.

Edit: 1.26MB. No wonder.

Ops! Didn't notice the file size.

Ok re-saved. Swapping now.

Hi, joytest. Here you go compress edition, now 519kb only.

me too. afternoon post and now post was 400++ diff... how to finish read.

by the way, andrew, looks like note3 coloue all darker (more obviously is red / yellow flower.
*
When I view at my monitor and phone and tablet, I find it output is very awesome.

The photos has great white balance, vividness (no over saturation) and great contrast. I don't find it over dark, it is well contrast. The worst is Xperia ZL, the white balance is gone, color is dull, cannot capture properly when direct sunlight and less contrast which make the photo bright out.

Great job Andrew on the photo comparison. biggrin.gif

Yes, I do agree the white balance - finally Samsung has got it right. It has taken some time, but they have done it.

Now I don't need to post-process my shots before uploading to Facebook etc anymore! thumbup.gif

Thanks. smile.gif Ya, now I am safe to direct upload to Facebook in future, no need any post processing anymore.
