I will go and have a beer now. Bert
Lovely Bert. What a night owl!
Is a beer at 6:10am classed as a late night beverage?..Of course it is

The negative stuff you have posted lately looks brilliant.
Some of the luminosity stuff looks better as a negative if you firstly
over-do the positive histogram stretch...ie looks bad as a positve
but really good as the neg.
