    If you straighten the horizon I will be looking at a brilliant image. It’s pretty good as is, just needs that little nudge, as its noticeable and thus detracts. On my screen the horizon point at the left is 27mm from the base, at the the right it is 26mm, so you need to go 1 degree or so CCW.

  • Colleen Milburn replied

    Hi Peter – yes, I couldn’t agree with you more. I’d say I’ve missed it (though I shouldn’t have!) due to the white line getting (purposely) thicker towards the RHS. I’ll fix it tonight and bmail you when I’ve done so. Many thanks – I really appreciate your advice :)
