Hi,

I suggest right-clicking on the image in the gallery, 
downloading it back to your computer, and taking a look 
at it in PS or Lightroom rather than "through the eyes" 
of a browser. This should show whether anything is 
happening along the way to or inside the gallery/browser.

Cheers
Douglas
