Hi Marina,

Thanks for the reply. I find I have to measure very carefully - you should see what happens when I don't! Hopefully there'll come a time when my eye is developed enough to trust more, but that's some way off right now, I think.

You make a good point about about the reflected light. I know that my lightest dark should be darker than my darkest light, and that area in particular does look too light now you mention it. I'll bear that in mind on the next one. Perhaps I would have been better off putting the main shadow block in darker right at the start.

Thanks again.
