Yes, that might be it. It didn't affect all, but quite a few of the
Canadian ones of mountain scenery.

Yes, something like that.

It's my attitude exactly.

PTgui cannot remove CA, alas. It is better done with RAW files, where
it can be effectively eliminated. With JPEGs the results can vary
from mediochre (I used to use a program that merely selectively greyed
our the coloured fringes. Not recommended!) to quite helpful. Any RAW
processing program with batch capabilities can automate this for you
at the cost of a few minutes in front of the computer.
