Now this one will get criticised as the sky replacement is an attempt by a learner but it's fine viewed on a mobile

Composition is that little bit different from most, like the warm grey muted look too - nowt wrong with this one
Glad you liked it, the soft pastel colours are what the scene looked like, I couldn't find a good' classic angle as I was getting into very wet mud already.

Took this on a grey day in the Boat graveyard, hopefully my amateur PP hasn't made it worse.

If it's for housing;
No doubt the type and style of housing, if that is what is planned, will be the awful minimalist land footage with barely a metre of front garden, miles of rear garden fencing for privacy of a few more metres if you are lucky. No where to park, one space per household if again you're lucky. 3 story high or more.....
There is a Newtown near Plymouth, Sherford, and years on from the beginning, as your picture, and it's still going, massive building site. I can't believe people are buying them and feel sorry for those that have.
Just my humble opinion lol. I'll get off my box now....

A lovely picture in a warm setting, atmospheric, like it.

Looks very similar to a Common Darter, see my pic in the gallery, ps I'm no expert.

I was surprised how late in the summer this specimen sprouted out from around an old one, as around here all the ones in the wild are long gone. Taken this morining in my garden, started flowering about a week ago and is small at 30cm / 12 inch high. SOOC.

Hope you don't mind?

No not at all. I never realised my version was so magenta/red and can see yours as more colder/blue, useful in this scene, on my laptop the difference is there but somehow I prefer mine, biased obviously I should have tinkered in RT with the colour (too much rushing).
Still with Rawtherapee as there are many possibilities to get to grips with, seen info on Faststone but not for me just yet, maybe in the future.

I copied this earlier this year/end of last? using a Heath Robinson setup, on a KP and 100mm DFA macro 2.8
It's one of a few that came out okay.
I have no idea who the people are but the Hotel down the slope, (must be a mile away) was on Mount Vogel, then Yugoslavia now Slovenia.
Taken on a Pentax ME Super with probably the 50mm M f1.7 which I still have or my 28mm M f2.8.
The shot only required De-Hazing in Rawtherapee IMHO. otherwise was a good copy of a holiday shot/snap.
Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
