Images of Durban, the rest of South Africa and
Images from across the Globe

Mac and PC
My images look so different on the Mac I work on, to a PC I viewed them on. On the PC they look grey and dull. So frustrating, because 80 percent of the world has PC's. I wish I could fix this. Or at least understand which is the "real" image. Sigh.

Save your photos in an sRGB colour space. Invariably if you look at images in the rubbish IE browser, it doesn't know how to colour manage, so when it gets a big colour space like Adobe RGB to look at (what your pics are probably saved in) it doesn't know how to map the colours properly.
You should urge PC users to stop using IE and move to Firefox or Safari.
I'm a documentary photographer in Durban, South Africa. I am represented by Africanpictures.net and have had several exhibitions and published in numerous magazines.

Make sure both systems are calibrated.
Make sure you use color management capable programs (Like Firefox, IE is too stupid for that).
