Ah, incandescent light. I use incandescent, fluorescent and halogen.
Yeah, I get it real bright. Either way, that picture is the result of poor
lighting. I actually bought a surf shack because I thought it had an orange
plate. It looked orange in the picture - and that was the picture on the
box! (i.e. I saw it in person and not a picture of the box) I guess that
even professionals have a problem sometimes.

| (...) My digital camera takes quite nice pictures with flash, of course it took even better pictures when I added a slave flash. That picture actually looked more to me like it was taken using room lights only (incandescent lights are very yellow). (...) (27 years ago, 14-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains)
