Stuart:
If you have Photoshop installed, you should have Adobe Gamma. You can open that from the control panel and use it to calibrate your monitor.

This is another lovely image... kinda the whole meal deal! I like the fact that his whole body is in the frame but I think there might be a little too much head room... you can probably crop the top inch or two off and it really puts the strength and focus on that fish!
Love the DOF you've got here... the green water is lovely as a background to this blue heron and orange fish!

Sorry to hear about your back - I bet that lens takes a little lugging around as well :-) I don't work with a "properly" calibrated monitor myself, but at least for CRTs and possibly for TFTs there are little sensors you can put on the screen and software controls the screen and analyzes the results. The cheapest ones are around $100, "Spyder" is a name I seem to remember. Altaf wrote an article about it here, not sure if it is still around. I'm assuming I'm okay for the two TFT monitors I use are very similar, plus digital prints come back much like I expect them to. Good luck.

Thanks Stefan.
The original pic was kind of light and washed out since I took it early in the morning and the sun was not directly above me .... Kind of like a morning haze. I just hit the auto level button in ACDSee and posted it as a quickie. I've had allot of trouble with my back lately and it's put a damper on my picture taking and computer time. I've been really wanting to get out and shoot ... I hate to sound like a wimp but holding the camera and trying to get that perfect shot is not helping the old back. hehehehehehehe . Plus I got a new Toshiba 17" wide screen notebook and my pictures look totally different on it compared to my Dell 19" flatscreen desktop, what I think looks great on the Dell is toooo over powering on the notebook and what looks Incredible the notebook looks like crap / dull on the Dell...... do you have any knowledge on how I can calibrate the monitors. I have dual 21? Sony flatscreens at work that are both set exactly the same yet still the pic?s look different in each one ? mmmmmm ?. I?m really frustrated about this?.. Sorry for such a long note?..
Thanks, and once again you take such great pix
Stuart.

Great job with the backlight - love the way the fish became almost translucent (a little hot in fact but not a biggie), and still you have enough light to show color and detail in the bird.
