A little undersaturated and slightly soft Maggie but it's a nice composition and crop

Hello Maggie.

Its a nice capture and I can see why you like it.

Nits covered and would agree with Andy.

Thanks Andy and Guy. Have tried what you suggested. Unfortunately can't post again for 72 hrs. The saturation has certainly helped but at 640 ISO was grainy so had to apply some noise reduction which I think is softening the picture. Don't know if there is any way round this.

Can't see the image too Maggie

Andy...

Feel a right idiot. Added more saturation and sharpening and tried to resubmit it which it wouldn't let me do. Seems it has removed the original. Oh pants

Well I can still see it Maggie - no need to feel like that as we've all been there
