"It does present a dilemma, though - how to keep what you want when it can appear so differently on different monitors?"

If you figure this one out let me know. I have one in voting now that on a calibrated monitor has a beautiful bit of detail in a dark area. I submitted it knowing that on crappy LCDs and laptops voters would just see a boring dark area. Making it brighter would have ruined the rest of the photo, so I lived with it. The only solution is different subject matter or forcing voters to get good monitors :(

Really nice. Great silhouette. The blobly highlight of the sun detracts. I wonder what it would look like with with the sun cloned out.

Nice shot. Sky really adds to the shot. I think the negative space on the lower left detracts from the shot.
