That was my initial thought too but, after checking the image properties and the Fuji FinePix JV500 Andy had used, I decided that a better photographer would have saved any need for 'guessing games'. The shot was taken at its wide angle setting (6.8mm) rather than at its zoom setting (20.4mm) which would have captured enough detail to make the print readable. I'm guessing Adam didn't notice the sticker until it was too late to take a zoomed in shot of the lamp. A good photographer would have noticed and took the extra 'detail shot' 'just for the record'. -- Johnny B Good |

You could read the sticker on the non zoomed in photo if you have access to the 5Mb image. I could not read the sticker when stood on the ground. -- Adam |
