Hey John
Definitely prefer this one and I like the hint of detail coming through in the background. I know you said that they were beech leaves but they're also reminiscent of horse chestnut, great colors and I like the consistent tone of the background.
One of my favourites!

Hi John,

I actually prefer the last one, I know I'm a difficult b******! :wink: Can't put my finger on why at the mo though. Like the new border and great colour again.

Cheers,

Lewis.

Thanks all.
Yes they are Beech and as a matter of interest there was only one H. Chestnut in the whole of the forest as I know. I say "was" cause I felled it ! :biggrin: Alien you know :rolleyes:

Nice image John and like the background. Not sure about the border though - its like a half 3D :confused:

Hmm - I'm not so sure about the background on this - maybe just a bit dominant. Maybe it will grow on me....

I'm afraid I also find the background just a bit too overpowering on this one John

I like this one John, yes, maybe the BG colours are a little bold but they work for me.

the BG is a little dominant for me

Nice John, the bg may be bold but I don't find it overpowers the subject...
