Afternoon folks. The last few images I have uploaded are no where near as punchy as the finished Photoshop image it derived from.

It has been so bad I have removed 2 as soon as they were uploaded.

Does anyone know what could be causing this loss of saturation, as I have not altered anything in my monitor or Photoshop settings?

The only change recently was I downloaded a trial version of Lightroom 4, but I did`nt change any settings that I was aware of.

I uploaded a Cargolux 747 today, and I have the original finished shot prior to upload if anyone wants a look.

Any help or assistance would be appreciated.

Aer you using different colour spaces, AdobeRGB and sRGB?

There was a thread about a different cause of this a while back ont he new forum.

For display on web pages you need to ensure that you process using sRGB. A lot of cameras and processing software default to Adobe RGB which is more suited to printing.

If your camera allows it set sRGB as the working colour space. Also set your processing software to sRGB working colour space.

What camera and processing software do you use. You mentioned Photoshop, which version ?
