I really really like this, Jon.

Just like Andreas, I find the colours and those deep rich tones very pleasing. Well composed and beautiful detail, that dark BG is superb!

Warmest regards,

[Jonathan Ashton]

Thanks Andreas & Gabriela I am pleased you liked it.

Hi Jon, I guess this is from the Scottish workshop you went on?

Personally I would like to have the whole frame lower, more at the foot, less above. Blacks/Contrast a wee bit heavy for my taste, I know Scotland isn't Flrida, but its also quite dark. Opening up the image by a third and reducing the blue cast does make a big difference, olus there is some colour noise in the BKG.

Hope you had a good time.
