Well, first of all an apology for the delay in posting another item on this blog - I have been rather consumed with real life, rather than attending to the labours of my hobbies. In addition to which, I have begun a Blood Bowl league at work and this has rather consumed a considerable amount of my hobby time - but some team photos should be forthcoming in the next few weeks (I hope!).

I've not been totally happy with my photography recently so last night I changed the exposure compensation on my camera back to +0.7 and tried using the custom White balance mode rather than the automatic setting. On the D40 this involves jumping to a setting in the menu and simply taking a calibration shot of a white (or grey) piece of paper under the lighting you intend to use.

I think the results speak for themselves!

As some of you may have noticed, bit of a gap on uploads recently.

Then it was a lack of time to upload and caption the photos.
