Check out the thorns on this baby! I made a second trip to the zoo this week (so yes the toadlily was a reshoot). I hadn't noticed this one before.

I don't know if it's my eyes or something I'm doing lately (new computer) but my images appear so much sharper in ps, then when I import them here they lose that sharpness.

Love the thorns! And I have the same problem with sharpness. After you resize, sharpen again, using either Sharpen and reduce the strength, or one of the other sharpen methods at a low "power". Then load it to here and see how it looks. Another thing - if you're shooting RAW and converting to jpeg, remember to Convert to Profile from Adobe RGB to sRGB, which is the colorspace used by the web.

Kelli, when reducing your images before uploading, are you using Bicubic Sharper? That helps maintain sharpness in reductions.

Very, very good capture. . . yours too! This is a unique image. It does appear to be somewhat soft.

I am not the computer expert, but your new computer may need a calibration, color sync, or gamma match. What's going on is correctable. If you look through the threads there are any number of tutorials that will get you straightened out.
