Great job getting low, Richard. Pretty plover here. Do you have any more space above, seems a bit close on top. I think you could take a bit off the bottom and add a bit more on top, and maybe a tad off behind. Nice image quality.

Sure Melissa no problem and more especially more correct

Still tight as posted. You needed to zoom out and then perhaps also point the lens up a bit.

Very sharp, and beautiful subdued colours. IQ-wise this is one of your finer efforts! Glad you decided on laying flat...when possible it really makes a huge difference getting down to the subject's eye-level.

Well done Richard.

Love the repost Rich, very good indeed, I may be tempted to try just a tad more sharpening on the head.

Hi Jon - SS to head

The management will not be held responsible for small differences in reprocessing lol

Merry Xmas to all btw!
