Thanks Phil,

However, I did just notice something today - the 
monitor on the back of my Canon shows nice and bright 
shots, but when I upload them into Lightroom, they look 
a little dull.

Maybe my monitor calibration profile  is making me add 
too much in the way of contrast and saturation after all.

Cheers
Douglas
