Not at all, as I said, this is up to Graham's usual standard. Graham's
usual standard ix excellent.

I was merely making the point that the particular mix of colours and
cloud found in this shot lend themselves to conversion to b&w. The shot
works in colour, I happen to think it's also interesting in b&w. :-)

I read this comment to mean that Graham's shots are
usally not all that great, but this particular one is absolutely
worthless in color (colour ?) , and that he must be out of his 
mind not to shoot the scene in B&W with a red filter, and 
then had the nerve and gall to show the mistake as is without 
fixing it first in Photoshop.   :-)  :-)   :-)

Actually, among some of my Vietnamese and Chinese friends
and family members who are polite to a fault, it could very well
mean that.   I get exhausted every time I talk with them, trying
to figure out what it really meant among all the verbiage.
