Great job in getting all of them in sharp focus :cool:

A shot like this where they are in a line formation, would look great in a "pano" crop also IMO.

Composition and light is great here. Works as is but now that Alan mentioned it, pano would also be good. :toast:

Hi Phillip

Nice one. Perhaps a little more seperation would have been good, but that is nit picking and you take what you are offered and I like what you were offered and you captured it well!

Lovely light Philip, agree that a pano might work very well also :smile:
