Blogger has messed up the compression on this one. The work around is to compress the files in GIMP and then load them onto blogger.

Actually the problems does not really seem to be with blogger's compression (at times it is terrible, look at my snaps of the eiffel tower, th eblue sky is savaged).
In this case it seems to be the problem caused when firefox compressed the image and displays it (when you click on the small image, the large image you see is a firefox compression, you can then click on it to look at it full size), at the full size the GIMP and blogger compressed images seem to be comparable.
