Can you spot the pigeons folks ? I'll send a crushed pack of no thrills cookies in a empty 2 litre drinks bottle via the Bristol channel to the winner cause I'm feeling quite generous 2night !

This is an old shot of Sherborne Abbey I notice with my large hi def dvi monitor just how washed out the original uploads look now .. tis a shame no one mentioned it b4. Anyway if I can't rework the original jpgs properly then I'll just delete them from the gallery.

Hey has anyone spotted the Pigeons yet ? I've got the cookies here awaiting immediate despatch. :o) It must be time to put the kettle on................................ ........................................................................................................................................... ...........................................................................................................................................

Well done Jerome your astute observations have won you a valuable prize. :o) there's a problem though the cookies won't reach you via the Bristol Channel my friend. :o(

Now if I could find a lorry going to Portsmouth the driver could throw them into the English Channel, & they might reach you 2morrow if the tides in the right direction. :o)

Lol! Phil I enjoyed this test and I see Jerome won first prize. I do see the difference in the two images. This one is better. Though I still don' think the other one was all that bad either. Maybe I just don't know what I'm talking about? Lol!

Maybe we all need new monitors too Phlossie. You buying? I found the pigeons. Let me rephrase that. The pigeons found me and then I found them. I like the architecture in this one.

Nice to see you are still around.
