This is Thomas, with our 5yo kitten in the background. Thomas was just sitting in the sun at the end of our bed, and I saw a photo op. So here 'tis!

I touched it up a bit with Adobe. It was a bit too dark, so I upped the brightness a bit, as well as the contrast.. just slightly.

Would somebody with a decent monitor be able to let me know if this picture now seems washed out? My monitor is one which is [insert profanity] to say the least. When I view this photo on my TV it seems fine, yet according to my monitor, I needed to increase the brightness etc. (which I did).

Thanks in advance.

Would somebody with a decent monitor be able to let me know if this picture now seems washed out? Nice catch. I like the composition.

The highlights are blown out in the white fur, and it could use a tad darker shadows. You might try increasing gamma instead of brightness to get that detail on the face.
