I had a quick go at that in PSE-11 - it looks...different. I can post it if you like, prior to it heading to the pixel graveyard that is the Recycle Bin.

All the contestants, officials etc in a 'bubble' in the venue for a few weeks. Games just the two players and the ref (and cameraman, I assume), nice lack of loud mouthed fans.

Nicely done, as usual. And thanks for explaining about them. I've learned something new today, which makes it a good day.
A disturbing thought - from now on, sight of a pork pie will make me think of shield bug eggs.

The latest Microsoft Edge is built on Google Chrome, why not just use the best?
I use Firefox and DuckDuckGo. I hate having to have an Android phone. Can't afford an iPhone.

Now we just need a bit less lock-down and I can do some serious testing of it, though testing in the garden suggests it's pretty good...

All our bikes and cars are still insured, I sold a moped last year and removed it from my collectors policy, 8 months later I recieved a threatening letter telling me I 'MUST' insure the bike or the DVLA would prosecute me...
...obviously the guy that bought it hadn't SORNed it, one quick text to him latter and all was sorted.
It appears that if you have a vehicle registered in your name then Big Brother expects it to be used/stored on a road. They don't seem to understand that people have garages/huts!

Or you COULD go mad and convert it to sepia.

Not great (to say the least!) but I think it does support your statement about certain images suiting certain treatments. I remember an article in one of the photo mags a while ago that made the point that colour and mono images need to start out as what they are to be. As you pointed out, mono images are based on tones and their interactions whereas colour images depend on the colours - you can't just take any image and turn it into mono - colours don't always convert to tones that work. When taking mono images, you need to think ahead. That's possibly why so many digital cameras have a mono option, and Leica sell versions of the M series models that are mono only. Makes using filters easier too, I should think.
Sorry, went on a bit there - I do that sometimes.
