    don't get me wrong Troy ...I really like the shot...that was just my first thought on it . & probably I'm the last person that should comment on these things cause I have a terrible time with mine.

    Hey Troy. Very nice shot with nice detail and a nice perch. I think the blue "thing" is around the wing bars. It is almost tealish on my monitor. It is probably partly due to the lighting and high ISO; sort of like a color cast that one sometimes gets in low light shots.

    It looks to me that it was shot in overcast lighting so the grays are a little cool! Nothing wrong with that! The good thing is that you got nice even lighting!

    Yep...Stephen nailed it...as far as I'm concerned. Teal is a more accurate description.

    My monitor is calibrated too...now that being said, I wasn't saying it was a big deal...just making an observation...trying to be helpful.

    Here...a picture is worth a thousand words.

    it is very helpful! Ric, you might have noticed that i rarely post images anymore. the reason is that what i see on my 24" iMac is so different from what PC users see. im not saying mine is better - its just different! So before i posted this junco i was sitting on the fence as to whether or not to post. I was hoping that what i see is what everyone else would see. So it is very helpful that you pointed that out. im going to have look at it on a different monitor to see this teal / bluish color....

    I really don't understand why an iMac should be any different, if calibrated. ne_nau.gif

    Now...I'm no expert on color...but, can't you read the rgb values in photoshop and see if an adjustment is necessary?

    Ric,

    im using a monitor at work right now and at first I dont see a difference between the two images but "Now i Do".......
    I wouldnt have noticed it without your edit so I thank you VERY MUCH posting that. I willcheck when i get home to see if i see it on my Imac monitor.....

    My particular iMac screen is 40% brighter ( and I turn the brightness down to "0" !! ) than a regular iMac screen so I think what happens is the brightness somehow makes what I see "more whiter" than blue if you can understand what im trying to say......ne_nau.gif
    Its the only fault with the 24" iMac as far as I know..

    Another example - on the monitor at work im on right now - i can hardly see the eye, but on my iMac the eye is sharp and clearly defined...

    Turn the backlight down. I had to back my 23" Sony way down. The software I use makes that easy...Gretag Macbeth's eye-one match 3 was taken over by:

    I understand the problem...it throws the luminance off...that is a problem.
