Depth to this image is fantastic, just trying to get my eyes used to the OOF leaves on the tree top. Great job. Did you take any with a shorter exposure?

Thanks, yes I've a couple of unprocessed ones, but I liked the cloud movement adding a bit of dynamic. Its unfortunate with the hedge movement but hey ho!

Suppose its one or the other really unless you feel like spending ages in PS doing a path, mask etc. zzz

I think it's fine just as it is. Gotta love those colours.

Great shot, but you really need to clone out the fly or dust bunny or whatever it is there.

Love the colours, shot and especially the sky. As each day passes, I see more and more pictures bettering my own!!


With 20s exposure, how is the grass so sharp, or was it a still day??

Kinda like this shot,love the movement think it work very well

A really visually arresting image. The movement on the grass and hedge communicates more of the weather. Nice work!

Excellent shot, definitely a strong contender.

An ND is next on my list of things to buy.
