monitor calibration to calibrate your monitor, use the image below; if you are viewing this page maximised with a black background, calibration might be possible without leaving this page; otherwise, save the image and load it against a black background; many image viewers are able to do this (load the image full screen without resizing it); there are 4 circles, each brighter than the last, from left to right; adjust your monitor's brightness until the leftmost circle is invisible and the next one visible; ![]() before i was informed of this calibration in 2008-10, my monitor brightness used to be set too low, because the bright white backgrounds of the internet used to wear me out; everything added to this site (or updated) since then has been produced on a calibrated monitor; it should therefore be viewed by a monitor similarly calibrated |

colour scheme initially this website was just my blog, and my blog contained nothing but photographs; i chose a black background to make the photographs more visible; when my words arrived, the obvious choice of colour was white |
