With the above image part of the blue sky shifts to red when softproofed. But it's in sRGB. 
Can you upload the same image in Adobe98?

I couldn't reproduce the shift in the EagleLake shot off of Holmes site but XUN sent me a crop  
of the image that was in sRGB and I could see the banding when softproofing.

I think the shifiting could be a color space issue.

Just for the record I tried redeveloping some problem images from the 
raw file in adobe, srgb and pro rgb and matching the working space with 
no noticable difference.

OK this one shifited too but how did you convert the image into Adobe?

Why don't I see the Holmes image shift to red with the same softproofing proflie?

Good we can narrow things down.

I matched the same size image you sent me and compared the two...the one you sent me 
shifted, the Holmes image just dulled down a little. Any more of detailed look I'll be going 
blind. It's definitely not shifting. Have you tried downloading the Eagle image again and 
keeping it in Adobe and softproofing again?

What platform are you on Windows or Mac?

Curiously the Crane Museo profile does not shift.  It appears to be at
least affected by paper type.
