Have had to use two different computers and monitors recently, due to major infections of our PCs (I want a mac, I want a mac...). Am ready to go to print with the T & I that I just did, and have worries that I cannot trust either monitor. Can I get some second opinions on lightness/darkness, etc please:

Saturday shoot:

Friday shoot:

11 different teams, but these are representative.

Ann,

The Saturday shoot seems fine to my monitor. Faces seem uniformly lit with no bright spots. The Friday shoot looks like the sun was coming from the right and those sides of the faces are bright, maybe close to blown out in a few. The team picture on Friday is bright, sky may be blown out. For soccer team shots may be just fine, though. The one shot under the trees on Friday seems better.

Friday shots look a little bright on my monitor. However, i think my monitor set to a bit lighter mode.
