RE: yes

I'd suspect that the Asylum is likely saving some bandwidth by 'processing' the images uploaded to its server. FWIW I have to be careful with my html editor settings or it will automatically do some 'extra jpeg compression' to my images when they get saved to my website.

There is probably a way to optimize an image so that it won't be 'ruined' by the formatting when uploading to the server. 'Just don't know what that is.

Anyway that would explain the excessive contrast on the one image. I'm still struggling with the blue cast. Aesthetically it's pleasing enough but I can't decide if its true to the event. I suspect a lens/camera conspiracy.

btw. Just ordered a Telephoto Zoom. Tokina AF-D 80-400mm F4.5-5.6. It's a little slow but several owners reports, that I've read, confirm that its pretty sharp at both ends provided its stopped down enough. Otherwise the big-name auto-focus zooms that go to 400mm are just too expensive. I'll use it with a tripod mostly.
