Re the bright white on the wings: I had thought that a little PS work using eg. the burn brush would bring out the underlying detail, but I have just tried it in PSP and was unable to - I guess the white may be too far blown.

Great timing! You might perhaps consider a little work on the burnt out white areas of the wings - I think you could really make something of this!

You´re very welcome Nicole, and... Luxembourg is not the only place were it is hot, we had 29 degrees today and tomorrow the forecast says 28 again and very dry too.
This weekend we have "Koninginnedag" a national holliday that used to be the birthday of our former Queen Juliana.
Have a nice weekend too, take care,

Klaas
