Firstly as a tall white man, he was not "invisible" secondly the chinese felt it was the height of rudeness to "pop-up" unexpectedly and snap an image and he seems to have been hounded by strap cutting razors and pickpockets. All 1950 of course.

Yes, I'm trying to use LR and several other programs that claim to remove CA. I have never been able to use any of the Adobe products to remove CA. The sliders go from Red to Green without ever being neutral!! So far, all I can do is use Gaussian Blur at a very high rate, Edit, Fade Gaussian Blur (Color) and then use the History Brush to brush out the red, green, purple and yellow edges. :-( It takes far too much time and I have far too many photos to correct them all. I agree, I need to go back with my M8s ;-) I loved China, anyway. Tina Tina Manley www.tinamanley.com _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
