The composition is great and the subject well caught. I'm looking on works monitor which ain't good but on here it looks a little bit flat which is easily remedied.

very nicely composed Maggie. I suspect this was taken from a very similar spot to my shot :smile: Could maybe benefit from a bit more contrast?

Cheers David. Thats very nice of you. How I would enjoy a glass of vino at the moment. Not a drop has passed my lips for 9 days butI still have another 10 days or so of antibiotics to go :frown: Have stopped smoking after 40 years as well. I am going to feel so healthy - I'll be running marathons next :biggrin: :wink:
