Sebastien: Thanks for somehow going back into my archives and digging this one up. I had to stir some cobwebs to recall my thinking at the time (my gray hairs are all memory cells that have escaped) but as I look at it now I think I do agree with you regarding the saturation. The current iteration is much more reflective of the scene as it really was and probably more in tune with my improved processing skills. Thanks so much for your insights, they mean a lot. >=))>
