Images not being displayed properly

Question

I am working with MATLAB R2012b. I am trying to get 7 images to display on one figure but I can get the image that MATLAB to displays to look exactly like the original file. I set the color map to gray in hopes that you make it look the same but no its still different. I have included both the original and what I get from MATLAB so you can see what is happening.

Here is my code:

w8 = imread('Winter8','jpg');
subplot(2,4,1), image(w8);
title('Winter8.jpg');
axis('off','image');
colormap('gray');
truesize;

And here are the images:

Orirginal:

Result from MATLAB:

Thanks for you help.

Answer 1

imagesc seems to work better than image

imagesc(w8);

colormap('gray');
