The Scenery does make it easier, seeing other's pictures (especially 
graham's regular update) gives inspiration. I know the camera can do the 
job, so I just have to hope one day I will be able to share what I see.

I have the shots raw, but when I adjust exposure in  olympus viewer, the 
whole image goes to dark, and when I try adjusting the highlight 
contrast and exposure in raw shooter it just goes all lifeless.

Moose - what did you tweak, was it just EV and if so by roughly how 
much, perhaps I am just being heavy handed.

Graham - thanks for your words of encouragement and your pictures to inspire


thanks Ian
