Colour version of image below. Colour comes from a single image. With the B&W used as a Lum layer. Simples! Was a bugger to re-size and line up though.

Pec Pads

These are bloody brilliant. I bought them from Amazon.uk the other day. I've been having a few problems cleaning my Skynyx camera recently using cotton buds, they always leave dust bunnies behind. I found these on a camera cleaning site and they work an absolute treat.

Slowly does it.
