Here's another possibility. I was browsing through this gallery. I kept 
thinking I should like the images more than I did, but wasn't sure why. 
Some, particularly, the verticals, I would like larger ... but that's 
not really it. Somehow they seemed subdued, lacking in oomph.

Then I realized; I was looking at relatively small images in a sea of 
pure, bright white. It's like it was overloading my visual sense so that 
I couldn't see the true tones of the image itself.

For your consideration, here's how this image looks with different 
luminance neutral backgrounds.

Personally, I prefer either black or the darkest gray, but any of the 
grays help me a lot. I just don't see the same image with the white 
background.
