Straighten the horizon and crop a little off the bottom and I think you have a fantastic picture.

Agree with this in order to reduce black spots of your pic. Otherwise, a fabulous compo you've got there.

Follow Russ's advice and you'll have a great shot from a great camera.

Sorry it has taken a while to reply.. Thank you everyone for your comments and suggestions..
I never even noticed the horizon and that is something I usually check out of habit.. Can I blame it on the excitement of getting the new camera..?

I am really looking forward to the better weather and longer evenings so I can get out and get more use out of it..

Pentax K7 and K5 and several black tubey things with magnifying glass in that twist around and move in and out - to be honest I am not sure exactly what I have. Will list the proper names one day..
