Looks OK to me Phil.
I think a pano crop would suit this one a bit better though. Too much grey at the top.

Still dry here on the mainland, although it does look like it's gonna rain any minute

Cheers

looks ok to me to Phil, going to be on Mull first week of June, so hoping to get something similar :)

Hi Phil
must agree a tadge off the top to pano will help it along just nicely

Yes I agree, it would suit a pano crop. Still a very nice image though.

Very nice, I love the colourful vegetation but also would prefer more foreground to replace the grey top bit :toast:

Hi Phil I was on Mull myself last week I think they look better in dull weather it was sunny last week and the shots I managed were very harsh and contasty. this is a nice image.
