Window Seat & View from the Parlour for mine Andrew - the exposures are well done, and the colours very rich without being over-saturated.
The bokeh behind and above the LHS of the pink roses is interesting. It's the only shot where this lens really demonstrates that aspect of its character.

Thanks everyone.
I waited ages for the people to clear the shot, Gareth but the room streward guy was getting a bit stressed so I had to just take the shot. As you may imagine, I've already tried to clone the people out but there's simply not enough material to make a convincing job!

PS. May I ask: from where does your name Bwichmawr come?
It is a really hard to spell it and I imagine, even more hard to pronounce ????
Good question .The set is quite nice

From Bwich Mawr - the great gap, the Severn valley maybe? Or Bwlch Mawr, a mountain on the edge of the Lleyn peninsula?

The name is a misspelling of Bwlchmawr. Which I think means big mountain in Welsh. My son (who is mad about all things Welsh) chose the name and set up this account because I'm rubbish with computers and I can't type accurately either. By the tiem I'd discovered the error it was too late so I left the name as it was!
Best wishes,
Andrew

Ah well it still makes sense in Welsh, just not a mountain but a gap. Since you are in Somerset the Severn Valley is closer than Bwlchmawr so I'd use that meaning .
I like the set. I even like the people in the Path Beyond. people-less photos can look so ....empty, dead . Now it looks like the place is loved and used.

Thanks for explanation
Oh how much easier it would be to write "Big Mnt" Yes, Welsh is really a tricky lng.
Yes, overall it is nice set. There are some that I like better and some that are not very special for me.

For me sometimes the English is tricky too. I am not very sure, what did you want to tell with this. Damning with faint praise! But fair enough.

It would be better, Gareth wouldn't it. Then it would actually mean something!
I'll do it!
I'll do it!

Have you ever tried bracketing and then layer blending to remove objects
rather than cloning??
