^ this, it’s an impossible task, it’s why as a studio we never use colour calibrated monitors, my advice, look at it on your phone or iPad, people usually cannot mess with the default on these type of devices.Unless you have a standard to go by it's a useless post, because everyones screen who is viewing is different so how can anyone tell.
Critique on slight colour issues is simply not possible, that’s life.If this is the stance we're going to take, why bother giving crit on any images on here? I mean, I get that everyone's monitor is different and all but it strikes me as a bit unhelpful.
If these had been posted in the landscape section, would everyone refuse to comment because of monitor calibration differences?
Yeah, perhaps. It could be as simple as a hobbyist asking if his shots are too green, as claimed by his wife? Everyone can give an opinion (even with that caveat), and if consistent then I guess the OP could then draw a conclusion.Critique on slight colour issues is simply not possible, that’s life.
I must say...Something looks a bit off, but not knowing the place and light on the day can only guess.
Beware of making things go HDRish with dehaze or whatever you used.
Had a quick play with one in photoshop to suit my monitor

I agree totally, the very least a professional should be doing is ensuring that colours are correct when delivered which requires a colour managed workflow, a calibrated and profiled monitor ensure a standard. Of course checks should be made on an unprofiled device.I think @Kieranstandishphoto comments are faulty.

And what do. You do when your colour is off on your “unprofiled device” ?
If you don't care enough about seeing accurate colour then you do nothing, and put up with it.
if you do care you profile it.
No one should expect to see accurate colours on an unprofiled device. As the chances of doing so are very low indeed.
It is very discourteous to supply less than as accurate colour as you can.
You as a professional should strive to provide an accurate result to your client which means you should be working in a calibrated and profiled environment... The idea is that you supply something that is as close to standard as possible, if your editing environment isn't standardised how do you know what you are supplying?And what do you do when your colour is off on your “unprofiled device” ? Facts are facts everyone is looking at something different. This is of course what we have found after over 1.6 million published images into a very colour specific area such as fashion.
Sorry Andy... There was a bit of research a while back that showed the fairer sex have better colour vision, of course it is all subjective and each and every one of us see colour differently. At the end of the day you were right to ask...Easy Boys ! I didn't mean to start an argument. Was only asking if my wife had a better colour vision than myself !

Your replies show a level of ignorance of colour management
Just to be clear my background is in professional colour critical photography...
