Thanks Jim and Bob. Jim, I found now that converting to sRGB for the web
causes those clipped intense reds (and yellows). That is the camera can
capture them and in ProPhotoRGB they are fine but the smaller colour space
throws its hands into the air when I convert at the end for the web. I've
not added any saturation at all to the originals, but I'll revisit the shots
and improve my processing technique. These being tropical, they are pretty
brilliant.

Cheers
