Ken,
 I'll have to to remember that. I was able to change the tint to grey with
Picasa.

 I have a question for you and others.  One of the other limitations of my
record shots is that I don't know or often have any recollection of size of
the moth.  I always use the same 4.5 mm focal length (25mm focal length in
35mm film) with a Panasonic DMC-DRC which is better for moths than the
Canon SX-40 I use for butterflies and birds..  How do others record
relative size?
Doug
