Cheers. Andrew.

Hi Stu,

Really amazing FD in a DS mode! I would say "rerfect" techically wise.
It is a shame that the sun is bald again.

Many thanks, everyone. I really appreciate your kind comments.

A more active Sun again would certainly be appreciated by all. :)

Very beautiful, Stu. Can you share exactly how you have added the coloring? What processing tool? What settings to get such nice coloring. Thanks.

Jordan

Stu,

Just found your "curves tutorial" in the reference library so will work through it and get back to you if I have any further questions. Thanks for creating the tutorial.
