Then when it popped up in Bridge big. I opened it in black and white. Cold toned duotone actually. And thought the shot was just not making it like it should be. With those nice bright colors of the various flowers - the greens of the flower stalks. The cold blues of the florescent lights and video screen... So I re copied it and opened it again with all settings cleared in regular boring color. -------------------- Mark William Rabiner > From: Jim Nichols <jhnichols at lighttube.net> > Reply-To: Leica Users Group <lug at leica-users.org> > Date: Sat, 5 Mar 2011 14:08:51 -0600 > To: Leica Users Group <lug at leica-users.org> > Subject: Re: [Leica] East Side Flour Man on break > > Interesting shot.
