Is it just me or have others noticed that some photos when put on the forum seem to look soft even when sharp before putting them on.

Need to go to supersavers Iain! LOL No, it's not you, it's the forum software, most, if not all, suffer to some degree. It compresses the quality out of the images, colour range and sharpness. I tend to use Flicker, although several of these 'free' image hosting sites seem to be stopping allowing images to be hosted then displayed on forums. I think photo bucket is one. Increasingly I am seeing messages that images are no longer available.

Nice one Iain. Yes the forum software seems to fuzz the images. I dont know why but it is something that the next change in software needs to consider and address.

Coincidentally Iain, my attention turned to butterflies today. This Gatekeeper was in the garden while I was testing out my new lens.(80-400). And yes, the software really messes with sharpness. Attachment: E492B459-FEEB-4F48-A6FB-0AFCB81DB9B0.jpeg (Downloaded 18 times)

So you've gone for the 80-400 then.

Very good Eric, despite the degradation. The high contrast background helps a lot. To some degree I think we have to accept that forum hosted images will be badly degraded, I don't think any forum image software is much better, the issue is storage of the image on the forum server and speed of delivery to the viewer. The cost of storage of large numbers of good quality images on the server would I think be prohibitive. Even with hosted images I am regularly seeing very slow presentation of image as they slowly populate posts on other forums, some not even appearing at all. A good (strong?) contrast image will usually present better and more clearly than a low contrast image. This becomes an issue with fine detail like feathers and the tiny scales on butterfly wings, which can become a mush rather than beautiful and clearly defined detail.

Love the inky blackness of the background Eric. Did you notice the bee on the top flower (just its rear)? Love the single eye spot on the butterfly wing.
