I thought they were fine images. Dark is dark.

Subject: [Digital BW] My website... darkness notes:


I have received a couple of emails letting me know that the photos look too
dark on
calibrated monitors (thank you!), and I wanted to address this issue for a
moment:

My images are very dark in general, with high contrast and very little
shadow detail by
design. Printed, they look exactly as they should (thank you Clayton and
BO!), matching
my calibrated monitor to a T. Unfortunately, there is a very fine line
between as dark as
they are and too dark that gets crossed when viewed on differently
calibrated monitors, it
would seem...I'm not sure what to do about this. I'm going to put a thin
border on the
images and see if that helps. So, please let me know if the viewing is
improved at all....I
appreciate it!
