Cheers David - noise is my enemy!


Thanks jjj


Ta!


Helped along by "smart sharpen" in CS4;)


Thankyou sir!


Cheers Gary - I've got 3 hours of RGB now to play with.


Correct Trevor - did a wider field with the nifty fifty, but it had some wierd colour gradients in it which always peed me off!


Subs were 15mins long.


Thanks Mike:thumbsup:
