I had noticed that when i upload pics they seem to display different to when i view them in paintshop pro x, the pics above seem a lot redder compared to the originals. I wonder whether i`m over doing the pp in raw shooter essentials or maybe it would help if i calibrated my monitor. Any ideas would be appreciated as i am pretty new to shooting in raw. Best regards Pete.

Thanks dimitri for pointing this out, i think i`ve found the problem. The colour management on my monitor was set to an old printer profile so i`ve been brightening and saturating the image to much, have now set it to sRGB colorspace and the image in pspx now matches what i see in forum.

I`ve redone the second image with just shadow and highlight contrast could you tell me if this looks better thanks. Nice shot Apatchy, my resident greenfinches are not very green at the moment, yours are much nicer..
