    • Thank you! SEP2 doesn’t always get restored colours exactly right, but for me that adds to it, it makes the resulting images look a little weird, which I like. With restored colour, less is often more, ie restraint is the thing often – and I think I mentioned the technique of setting up a SEP2 Control Point to restore colour, and then moving the point around on the image, seeing what it throws up here and there, in terms of both colours and tones. A 🙂
