Thanks Pete and Greg for the feedback.

The issue of image brightness is a tough one Greg as it brings into play viewing conditions, monitor brightness and the like. I purchased monitor calibration hardware/software after last year's DMA awards and have made sure to calibrate my monitor (though it is probably time to re check it!).

I do tend to be very cautious about over brightening images as it can lead to loss of subtle detail. Though I agree that this could be a the cost of having an image 'pop' a little more.

To have another look, I went back and tried a few adjustments in Histogram and Curves and thought that maybe, possibly, a small improvement could be made with a very slight contrast curve enhancement. I wasn't convinced enough though I must admit to post another version (though I may change my mind when I ponder a bit more :-).

Thanks again for the feedback.

CS,
Rodney
