I thought I'd do a few comparison shots showing the changes to an original photo.

 

Firstly with the Sky added, (I forgot to save the original).

 

Then lightened a little.

 

Then cropped.

Preferred the first picture Andy.

Yes, I think your right on this one Peter, there will be some more over the coming days, but the changes did not improve this image.

[Andrew P]

Hi Guys, I'm fine thanks,  just a total lack of Mojo despite loads going on in the POD.

 

George @georgeT rang me just now to see if I was O.K. and I also had a call from Ade @Adrian Stevenson this morning as well.

 

I do have loads to do, like scenics, ballasting, moving the Yard Lamps on Bench Road, and then re doing the Sidings on Seven Mills, but there is no hurry, it will get done once the mood kicks in again.

 

I probably wont be around tomorrow morning as I have a early Hospital appointment.

Hi Peter, Yes I agree, the ones that went to RM had natural light in the lower regions and so looked more realistic. trying to lighten them in Paint doesn't work as well as it bleaches it all out.

 

It was only an X Ray this morning, I will have a telephone consultation with the Dr at the Hospital on the 6th Jan to see if they can find out what it is. When I had the Heart scare the other week, the X Ray then detected a white area inside a Lung, when I went back for a scan they couldn't find it, so today was to see if the X Ray showed it up again, of if it had gone naturally.

No Planning last night for today.

 

I normally plan my next days jobs the day / night before. This means I don't waste time once out there, but today if I go in to the POD, I have no idea what the outcome of any visit might produce. 

 

Will I be having a play on my Guitars, maybe do a bit of Art, work on Bench Road, or maybe even have a running session?

 

Time will tell, back later.

A play on the guitars sound good if you have nothing else planned.

Yes it was Hendrix and many others, but most Guitarist use a Plectrum unless playing Spanish or Classical.

 

Results will be fine, I don't feel any ailments thanks.

Just stopped for Coffee and a Mince Pie, but so far I've had a nice running session, the first for at least 2 Months, there will be some pics and maybe even a short Video later.
