The&nbsp; illustrations are clear and sharp as the printing plates were new. In later editions the illustrations are often faded and fuzzy.<br>This is relevant because the acclaim justly given to this book when it was published was for the quality, beauty and botanical accuracy of the illustrations, all based on 60+ years of diligent research.<br><a href="https://toot.wales/tags/books" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>books</span></a> <a href="https://toot.wales/tags/botany" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>botany</span></a> <a href="https://toot.wales/tags/flowers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>flowers</span></a> <a href="https://toot.wales/tags/illustration" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>illustration</span></a> <a href="https://toot.wales/tags/printing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>printing</span></a></p>
Solarbird :flag_cascadia:<p>Meanwhile the closest to correct water colour is base tint +50%, which is still too green everywhere else.</p><p>Basically, this is a weird printer.</p><p>I think I'm gonna try +1/8th on the red - maybe just a little shy of that - and +35 to 40% on the contrast. I really like how the non-bike-streets show up really clearly above +25% and I want to see how much of that I can retain _without_ starting to blow out the dark grey text.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.murkworks.net/tags/BikeMap" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BikeMap</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.murkworks.net/tags/design" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>design</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.murkworks.net/tags/art" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>art</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.murkworks.net/tags/printing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>printing</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.murkworks.net/tags/ColourMatching" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ColourMatching</span></a></p>
Solarbird :flag_cascadia:<p>ANYWAY MUCH LATER</p><p>It's kinda weird! The amount of contrast has a real effect on the colour balance too on this printer. Not sure what's up with that.</p><p>+1/8 red +25% contrast for example gives me arguably good enough visibility on the Seattle non-bike streets, though I'd like slightly more. But the Greater Northshore proper background is a little too red and also still kinda light.</p><p>Then jumping to +50% contrast at 1/8 red somehow _corrects the colour balance in the land_. I don't know how that's happening. Unfortunately, it blows out the text a little, and makes the water more purple than I want - meaning that the red goes down in the land while increasing in the lake.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.murkworks.net/tags/BikeMap" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BikeMap</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.murkworks.net/tags/design" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>design</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.murkworks.net/tags/art" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>art</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.murkworks.net/tags/printing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>printing</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.murkworks.net/tags/ColourMatching" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ColourMatching</span></a></p>
