On the border of Lincolnshire and Norfolk, Sutton Bridge,.

The swingbridge we are working on, this time just as dawn was breaking and the low sun just started to illuminate the tower and the bridgeman's house.

I don't have photoshop! I did have lightroom, bought and paid for outright, but Adobe, being pirates or pikies or some other lowlife, decided to remove the validity of my product key and shut my copy down - it was on a CD originally. I paid quite a lot of money for it too. So, having shown their...

There are rubbish lawyers too, even though they have letters after their name.....

Just far too much faff for a few dollars more!

I was thinking of audio to suit the subject. So fo instance a film of a horse and cart going up the road - you would want panting breath of the horse, hooves clip-clopping, the squeak of springs and the rumble of wheels... for instance. Possibly the crack of a whip too.
