Squirrel Skelly..

Hi folks,

Quick update on the calibration issue.. I've been investigating and it appears the contrast & brightness were set way too high on my monitor so basically all the work I had white balanced on Photoshop was out - plus there appeared to be a severe blue cast on many of the images.  I've now corrected all of the posts and hopefully, everything should be hunky dory now.

If anybody out there contrast/brightness corrects their scanned images I would seriously recommend checking a site like Lagom for help. This website has been incredibly helpful for tweaking my monitor.

Finally,

The Faerie Glen.

I tend not to blog about places too often but the Faerie Glen (near Uig) on the isle of Skye might possibly be the most amazing place I've been in many, many years. It's basically Hobbiton - in Scotland. Seriously. Utterly mental & quite brilliant, check it out if you're ever on Skye.
