2. Urban Sunset - And I think I may not be entering the "Red Contest"

I get an impending feeling of doom and approaching artistic juggernauts.

3. I voted for Urban Sunset

6. Urban sunset

With a little bit of work in post processing, this one could be cool.
- a little sharpening on the building.
- some playing with the brightness and contrast could bring out the clouds. (I am currently viewing it on an uncalibrated monitor.)

7. My monitor makes everything...

look a bit darker, so I'm never quite sure what to do. Also, I just got Photoshop Elements and am not sure how to use it yet.

8. Monitor calibration is the first thing needed

when you start getting serious about photo post processing. I use the Spyder2 stuff at home. At work I have done "eyeball calibration" using the graphs at
http://www.normankoren.com/makingfineprints1A.html#gammachart
and making sure I can see all the differences in the chart at the bottom of the dpreview.com review pages:
