Trying my best here. Too soft. Used HDR. Just not happy with quality. What do you think?

Yup. I think you're right. I'll have another go.

Love the composition but I think this would have benefitted from being taken at a smaller aperture (f8 to f11?) to improve the overall sharpness of the picture and give greater depth of field from the near foreground all the way to the far distance.

Can't really understand why you used HDR but it's a lovely composition which, as David says, could have benefited from a smaller aperture. If you've learned from that then next time will be even better!

Hi Paul, Thanks for comment. Was giving HDR a try and didn't work here.

However, have used a wide 3.5mm in forground because with my new lens everything a smaller aperature goes really fuzzy. This is as good as it gets with this wide angle lens! Not a happy snapper at the moment.

Thank you so much for all your comments. I was very troubled about taking this shot, but I've recovered from my petulance now.
