Color Spaces sRGB and Adobe RGB 1998
I found this very useful article on web browsers and managed colors spaces. I get asked by new photographers that go out and shoot go home and edit there images and upload the images to web to only find there colors muted. Most online tools strip out the meta data out of images. Well first what is this “metadata”? The short answer is data that is not visual, like the make and model of the camera, inforamtion added after the image was created like the location and key words. You can find more info here (http://www.photometadata.org/)
