Okay, I just finished shooting a local Christmas parade (This gallery) and I'm flumoxed with the final result. Viewing the images in Capture NX, or CS3, they're exactly how I want them to appear. Viewing them in a web-browser, or with MS Picture & Fax viewer, etc, many are dull, desaturated, and frankly, look like crap. # 15 is a perfect example; it looks fine in the editors, but is, to say the least, lacking otherwise, or at least so it appears to me.
I'm using sRGB across the board (camera, Capture NX, and CS3) as this batch was meant primarily for the web and using a colour-corrected monitor. Is this simply a result of viewing in non colour-managed applications? I've never noticed it before, at least not to this extreme degree.
I'd be grateful for any input on the problem, as well as to anyone who might want to take the time and check out the images and provide their thoughts on how they appear, esp. if you're using a colour-corrected monitor.
TIA
John
