01-10-04 The Test Pattern

Ol Mox clicks his heels, snaps his castanets, and does a MEAN Mexican Hat Dance!
OLE! OLE! OLE!

It's not a Mexican Restaurant, but on the wall of our family room. I bought the serape in San Antonio, and my wife brought the sombrero home from Mexico. The kids put s peacock feather behind the hat.

This thing worked out to be a real color test for the Nikon. I learned a bit about correction in working it up. It is very close to actual now. Understandably, the pattern threw the camera's meter to some extent.
