Photos of mine like this one seem to be sharper and have richer colour than the file on my hard drive. I always thought it was just in my head (mostly due to the photo being displayed at a small size), but my coworker just said the same thing aloud and now I'm wondering what's going on.
Is Flickr applying some filters on our images when they're uploaded? If so, does anyone know how I might reproduce the effect? I'm very curious to what's going on here.
Edit: Here is the same photo uploaded to my personal gallery site. And here is the smaller size pic.
Edit 2: Now looking at it, the photo on Flickr doesn't seem altered at full resolution. But at the smaller size, they do sharpening!
To illustrate best, open both of the links below in tabs and cycle between the two:
