Great tips Rick. Thanks for that. I will definitely try that. I am learning PI at the moment and updated my software to the latest V1.8 recently. I kind of half knew my way round PI a few years ago but dropped it. Now I'm relearning it properly.

PI seems to do many basic tasks really well, like gradient correction etc but the finer colour processing often seems way harsh and HDR's which is an ugly look. I suppose its a matter of turning it all down to make it useful.
