Thanks for taking a look Jerry,
I'll have another crack at trying to get the colours back to how I
remember them tomorrow, I'm very wary of using hue/saturation
in PS, it always seems to go wrong for me. Maybe I'll try out ROC mode
on the Nikon scanner too. It might just be possible to salvage
something.
cheers
Douglas
