I couldn't stop the shot - I have nerve problems in my hands and can't always feel things . The next shot would have had her handicapped sons in it - and that was not my intention.

The series that that one is a part of actually have some very very intimate moments in them - everything was actually shot during the service and I was moving around most of the time . I know the Church very well so I knew where to position myself .

Everytime I use the K-x I praise its inbuilt stabilisation - it really works well

Re photoshop elements, don't be put off by adobe bridge. Just right click the shot in Finder and open with photoshop elements. It will take you straight to the raw converter.

I agree that it's mainly just the blue light cast by the windows causing the 'problem'. You could try reducing the saturation or lightness of blues using the hue/saturation function in photoshop elements, just select blue from the drop down list of colours and move the sliders. The bin being to fans down the blue a bit while keeping the scene looking natural. Can't beat photoshop, jump onto it as soon as you can.

Waheeeeeeey

First person who has said that I can go straight from finder to PSE

During the College Course we were made to open Bridge , put the pics we were to work on in that and then go to Elements and this drove me to complete despair . I didn't realise that I could just ignore the dratted Bridge thing .

You may well have solved my 'block'

Once this week [ likely to be rather busy with various things happening ] is over I'll have another go with PSE .
