Looks nice and sharp! However there seems to be a slight halo issue with the skull in number 4 but it doesn't seem overexposed? And what has happened in number 7? Is the glare or whatever it is down to a lack of a hood? Sorry to bitch about your new baby

Hi Tim, No problem at all with your C&C I agree with all your observations
Re. the skull, well spotted... that is purely down to my half-cocked PP, I softened the background slightly because it looked a little busy, not something I was quite expecting with the 35 Ltd I must admit. Perhaps it was just the closeness of the other branches. Anyway here is a more carefully crafted version.

With regard to my better-half negotiating the stile. I'm not sure, it could be that the hood wasn't extended, in fact it wasn't extended for any of the shots I took on Saturday but then it was pretty overcast :

Yeah I'm not sure what has caused the lack of contrast around her jacket and head. It looks kinda like glare but it could just be mist!
