I am trying to see why the colors are so bland compared to before being uploaded to the net. I converted to sRGB and it did help a little, but it still pales in caparison to the photo on my mac.

You can trying going to Save for Web and then click the triangle-button to the top-left of "Save" and select "Use Document Color Profile."

If this doesn't work, then this is just a problem you get with some monitors. As long as you're preparing the files correctly and have calibrated your monitor correctly, you just have to trust what you see in Photoshop. What you see in Photoshop on your computer will be close to what *most* people see in their browsers on their computers. I have the same issue and have learned I just have to ignore what I see on my browser, hard as it may be.

I believe you if you say it's better on your machine, but I can't imagine it being so. Wildlife isn't really my thing, but this photo is striking! Very nice work. :toast:

I'm just starting to figure out this whole color management thing!
