Default Is this too bright? Monitor calibration issues.

I've had some complaints about my images looking too dark lately, and when I got my last set of prints back, they also appeared to be too dark. I changed the brightness of my monitor to match the prints, and re-calibrated with an Eye One. Now my shots look way to bright, on any machine but my own. So I'm trying to get a sense of what others are experiencing. So what do you think, does this look to bright to you? Do you notice any blown highlights?

Looks good to me. Not bright at all. I can see all the water streaming. Nothing looks blown out.
