For my non-landscape shot I edited it on my pc at home with a Sony flat screen monitor. I was pleased as the photo was nice and bright and there was good detail in the birds eye .... After the deadline when I looked at the submitted photo on my pc at work with a Xerox flat screen monitor it looked way too dark, the detail in the eye was all gone!

I am wondering which looks best on most peoples monitors, the second image I edited at work to look how the first one looks at home! Can you see the detail in the eye of the first one?

The last one looks way better :) On the first one the eye is just all dark, but you can see the colours and everything in the bright one.

The darker one is way murky-looking. The lighter one is pretty much on target, as far as my monitor goes (a calibrated LaCie 22-inch CRT graphic arts monitor)

Second looks best. My monitor is calibrated.

Agree with the others. Cheap but calibrated 24" HP LCD. Is your monitor at home calibrated?

Ok, that's very interesting, thank you very much for your assistance ... my monitor at home is not calibrated, I will google and give it a go and see if that makes it better.

The second is definitely clearer - Im using a philips light frame & it looks better on all 4 settings.
