About
Welcome to the 21st century shoebox - my photographic home on the internet. It is a portal to my photos, as well as a repository for my technical articles and tips & tricks related to color management. The tools section contains a number of tools for a Photoshop-centric workflow that are freely downloadable. Enjoy!

What's new
24 September 2009After a long study-related hiatus I have finished an essay that I have started working on a long time ago. In Alternative photographic parameters: a format-independent approach, I delve further into the (in)significance of the various sensor sizes that are available in digital cameras. I approach the problem by trying to let go of the familiar, and therefore often confusing, definitions of ISO, F-number and focal length, and focus instead on the combinations of parameters that are truly of interest to photographers.
2 November 2008ACR calibrator L has been updated to version 3.1. This release also marks the end of further development on ACR calibrator L. Adobe's DNG profile infrastructure provides a better way to deal with profiles, to be used in conjunction with ACR version 4.5 (CS3) and newer.
28 May 2008ACR calibrator L has been updated to version 3.0. In addition, I have slightly updated my scene-referred workflow essay to better indicate the current advantages of the method.
3 February 2008Tonability has been updated to version 1.1.
25 January 2008A new essay, The scene-referred workflow - a proposal, has been published. In it, I explain how scene-referred images can be used as an intermediate step in the digital processing workflow and in which benefits this could result. This proposal also lies at the heart of the tools that are available for download from this site.
15 January 2008Launch of the new site! This coincides with the release of a new Photoshop plugin, Tonability, a minor update of the ACR calibrator script, the release of an essay on sensor sizes and the color management tips & tricks section.
