RGB on TV

A photo of a tv screen showing a commercial for a television manufacture,
promoting their RGB reproduction. I think the little fellow on the left
of the screen is trying to escape from the television.

What fun, Ed! You certainly got all of the colors in there and I love those little creatures. I hope that one didn't get out though! This does seem to work better than shooting the old fashioned TV screens, very little patterning and no stripe. ~Sharon

Paul, I was surprised that it turned out as well as it did. I was watching a baseball game when the commercial came on. My camera was lying on the desk next to me, I turned it on and quickly fired off the shot. Not much time to prep the camera. Since I shot it in raw, I could play with the exposure a little before converting to jpg. Thanks, Ed Lindquist.

The few times I have tried to photograph a scene on TV it never came out quite right.
I have not tried shooting a LCD or a plasma, only a CRT. Paul A.
