Beacon Park, Lichfield. Chancellor Law's Fountain looking out

towards the Cathedral and The Free Library. All comments very

welcome, thank you.

Ken, I think that this is a nice well exposed and saturated image but I would like to see more of the Lions. It feels a bit cramped as a result.

Possibly change viewpoint? or use a wide angle lens?

Just had a quick look at your other images in your portfolio and they are excellent.

Hi Frank. Thanks for the kind and constructive comments. Yes wider would have been the ideal shot and that's how it was taken. This is quite a busy location with people walking by and sitting by the lions (too many to clone out) so I was forced to crop to keep the focus on the fountain and the background. Best regards Ken.

I have just started to experiment with the Lee Big Stopper filter. In one image I was able to lose everyone that came into the shot. However, it requires a tripod and a very long exposure in terms of minutes. It's worth trying.

Hi Frank. Thanks for the info and advice. I do currently take all my shots hand held including IR images, but that's worth considering for the future. Best regards Ken.
