A couple of recently edited shots. What a difference having a fast laptop makes to editing - new MacAir M1 is a joy!

Great atmosphere in the first one and the second has wonderful colours and tones. The contrast of the foreground really stands out compared to the more pastel looking sky.

The screen is significantly better than my old Lenovo yoga! In all seriousness i use a surface pro for work and it just seems better - it’s worth the dosh so far I would say

Thanks Chris.
A lot of the computer stuff is way over my head so just trying to get the right one and on a budget. Not too bothered about speed as long as it runs the usual programs without to much trouble. Main concern was with the screen so your input has helped.

The ArM chips are interesting for computers and Mac Minis seem almost good value

Two is good but id reduce the blacks slightly and lift the shadows a bit more
