Another cold (-10 degrees C) and clear day allowed for a quick session during my lunch break.

Thanks all,

Mark: Very chilly indeed. Must keep the imaging sessions short, so not much time to tweak and fine-adjust settings.

Terry: That was a nice surprise. Thanks for letting me know!!

Best regards,
Arne
