help me edit this picture

[cityhunter2501]

I'm planning to print this image I took to poster size 27x40, don't really have a decent screen to get the right colors so was hoping if any beyond photogs can edit to make it more vibrant and lose the fog a bit.

I only have the JPG as I don't shoot RAW and regretting it for this shot.

one thing to note is when you print it the printer will most likely be converting the colors into cmyk and no two printer print exactly the same color tones....

so your editing is only as good as the printer calibration.

just my 2c

I did a 1 minute job and took it to the extreme, maybe someone can fix the clouds and turn down some of the color sat, it was a preset :)

I can do a toned down version for you too if you would like.

what does that even mean.

what does a professional print have to do with the cmyk color process or how calibrated the printer is?

Actually I operate a 54" wide format printer for a living
5 years experience.

So yes, that does make me an expert.
I also went to technical school for graphic design, so that makes me a professional.


Go cry me a river GQ.
Quote my post where I said I was an expert on trap bars?
I can give you a quote from my thread:


if anyone has con's they can add so as to enlighten me.

How is that sounding like a pro?

Plus, you didn't even post in that thread.

What a baby.

Toned down the red as requested.
