Ian-This is a terrific composition (perfect to be honest) and I really like the picture. The only criticism I have is it looks a bit grainy or maybe out of focus. This may be because it's a low resolution file, if something was altered too much in processing, maybe it was hazy, or maybe you had a long exposure and the wind blew the vegetation a bit--I can't tell. Regardless, your composition is outstanding and I like the shot very much!

Thanks for your comments - I agree about the grain & sharpness and perhaps I should have mentioned that this shot was originally capured on film some years ago and what you see is the result of scanning a matt finish print - I believe I still have the negative somewhere and maybe (one day) I'll have another go
