Let me begin by saying that I do not have a calibrated monitor. While they appear dark, I wouldn't say "very dark". My guess is that they will appear differently. Quickly took the last one into PSCC. Histogram looks fine:  |

Hi Pat
I am not on my calibrated monitor .. on laptop.
Your photos look good to me.
#1 and #2 .. possibly a bit more details in shadows ... i.e. "lighten shadows"
#2 and #3 possible a wee bit more contrast in the mountain trees.
But overall, levels or okay.

Hi Pat, I do calibrate my monitor with a Spyder and my monitor is set at 60 lumins. Having said that, to me your images look a little flat and you are focused on the items nearest to you which would make the backgrounds appear darker. I took the liberty of doing an edit with my monitor calibrated at 60, so does this look to bright to you?  |

....this question is a lot like the dragon eating its tail (endlessly repeating!), but I have my monitor callibrated for 80 lumins so that if I ever print anything, the colors will come out properly in the print. I have posted a few images to f/b and am wondering if viewers will see a very dark version on their own monitors. Here are some samples from my recent trip through the Canadian Rockies..... Do you see a very dark image on your monitor? [editor's note.....you can see how high the water levels are.....] I used windows 10 calibration for my monitor and keep the lights in my room very dim ... your images seem just about right to me. |

Thanks everyone! fotofrank, the right half does look a little greyer and brighter. I like it.

I'm on a laptop (non-calibrated) and at first thought the shadows might be a tad bit dark, but when I went to the full size file I found each to have very nice contrast with no blown out blacks or whites . . in my opinion ;^)
