Permanent ban

Well, at least one of the shrubs in my parent's garden has life on it, and on a regular basis. I've spotted a lot of Lynx spiders on it over several days, which has made me happy. Also spotted a nice Wasp yesterday on it, but alas my skills were not up to grabbing a good shot of it.

Hiya Dave,

Good to see you back posting, good shots but as Brian says " #1 looks like it needs some brightening ".

Is this coz you're on another monitor maybe ? maybe some calibrating needed ?

Have you tried this site, have a look see what you think ?

Thanks guys - Brian, #1 looks fine on my LCD monitor, which has been hand calibrated by eye. Interesting, it probably is out, I don't have the money for a Spyder2 calibrator - yet. If all goes well, I should be in employ in the next few weeks, at least temping earning good $$$ whilst I'm looking for full time work

Nice shots Dave.

#1 doesn't look that dark to me - my monitor must be out as well
