uploaded photos seem brighter than originals
-
I’ve been uploading some photos to my blog and they appear a lot brighter than the originals. Is anyone else experiencing this issue? Is there a setting I can change — or is this a wordpress compression issue? As a photographer, it’s a bit frustrating as I spend time in photoshop making the image look a certain way, but then uploaded it seems flat and definitely brighter than I would like. Thanks!

I think it’s a common problem, and no real solution. I’m an amateur, but some pictures just look dull when they get uploaded. I’ve tried bumping up the saturation and contrast and that helps sometimes…

Images resized by WP lose some sharpness and some color (see here for a comparison). You should either upload scaled-down copies of them that will be inserted in real size, or be content with the good quality originals you get when clicking on the thumbnails. If you want both ok, you need to upload both the original and a properly scaled-down copy of it, and make the second link to the first.
