Taken this morning outside the front door. I should mention that I was
the only one up yet. I saw the light from the upstairs bathroom window
upon stepping out of the shower. I ran 'au naturel' out to the car,
got the camera, changed lenses and took several shots. I thought that
would add a little to the image. ;-)

The other version which was the one I failed to convert the profile on
is here:

I hope not to hear Jack Davis say he prefers the second one better.

Thanks everyone. I got it fixed thanks to your kind assistance.
1) I still don't have a clear understanding of it though. I had gone
to the <Color Settings> dialog on the Edit menu. It pops up and in
the Working Space RGB field it says sRGB IEC61966-2.1. Seeing that,
I thought the image *already was* in sRGB, and I was using Save for
Web as usual.
2) However, when I went to <Convert to Profile> on the Edit menu, the
Source Space was Adobe RGB. Setting the destination space to sRGB
(converting to) and then using Save to Web corrected the problem.
So now I ask (and I'm sure this has been mentioned here before or I
could look it up), what is it really telling me under <Color
Settings> when it says the working space is sRGB?
I'm also amazed at how little difference it has made in other images,
not doing the Convert to Profile step.

As Ryan said, make sure the color space is sRGB. Then, if you're
using PhotoShop do a Save for Web. It should come up on the Save for
Web page looking the same as your sRGB but all exif data and color
space info will be stripped. That should avoid any confusion when
you put it up on the web.

I've been this route before... aargh.
Convert to profile sRGB, that'll expand or reduce your working
gamut into the web gamut and it should be exactly the same in
appearance. Don't bother embedding a profile in the web image, it
is assumed sRGB and may be ignored.
