Here my shots of RaceFace "Diabolus" bicycle parts.

Since I am all-new to photography, those are one of my first tries. Camera is a SONY DSC-H50 (I know, wrong on "Simple SLR")

Hey Felix, welcome to the forum!
Looks a bit dark, most of the images...could be because your Mac's display gamma is a bit different from PCs.
This one has potential. If it was shot perfectly symmetrical, ie. the line where the object meets the reflection is perfectly horizontal, it would enhance the idea of the image, which I believe is symmetry.

Andy, thanks for your input.

In fact, I just compared the pictures between my Mac and my PC - that's one hughe difference! And all the images look so much better on the Mac.
What can I do? Because only now I realize that most of my friends see those pictures in this low, dark quality.

Concerning symmetry: Do you think I shouldn't have taken the picture in an angle? More like the third picture from the bottom?
Or do you refer to the general design of the crank with the machined edge?

Cu!

Hi Felix, if you use Photoshop, there's a way to see the image as it appears on a Mac or a PC.
Go to View -> Proof Setup -> and choose either Mac RGB or Windows RGB.
Then go to View -> Proof Colors to see the effect.
You'll notice the Mac RGB looks brighter than the Windows RGB.
