Fleetwood to Belfast car ferry, at Fleetwood, went with a friend for an evening drive, here's where we ended up, the setting sun was being reflected from the side of the ship, I especially liked the silouette and the shadow of the gangway set against the gleaming hull of the ship.

Summicron; you have a special eye for unusual things. Your photos are amazing.

Summicron, just guessing, but is your computer monitor a CRT, rather than an LED screen?

Yes, and its a ton weight, thought of getting a digital, but I don't think I could lift this one out, brand name is tiny, it looks it too.

Ah, now I know what you're getting at Barbarian. Of course digital screens render pictures much less saturated than the older type of Cathode Ray Tube, I noticed this when we went over to see Margery's son in law, I noticed just how much paler (aneamic) looking they were on his monitor, but didn't give it any thought, as I thought someone just had the brightness cranked up to their taste, this is something new to me. Like I said I'm using a 19" CRT monitor, and my slides look well saturated to me.

The problem is that old CRTs get darker, and you crank up the brightness to compensate.

And then, on newer screens, your photos look a bit washed out.

Had this happen to me a while back.
