Supremely effective use of light, colour and line combine to produce a memorable landscape. Hope your feeling chuffed, I would be 8). Jon:wink:

My point exactly, Andrew :mrgreen: I had the good fortune to live in spitting distance of Chastleton (Chipping Norton) between 1987 and 1993. We got out just before is started to go 'pear-shaped' with the arrival of Clarkson and the other members of the 'Chipping Norton' set :!: Jon:wink:

Some house :!: I'd hate to be responsible for keeping the windows clean :lol: Well visualised, captured and framed 8) Is one born with the ability to see such images in the 'mind's eye' or can it be acquired, even in those of advancing years such as myself :?: Best wishes, Jon:wink:

A well executed capture in which you have successfully isolated the stunningly colourful subject from the unavoidably 'busy' background detail. Congratulations :!: Jon:wink:

The word that came instantly to my mind on seeing your image was "inspired": an exceptionally imaginative and effective capture 8) Jon:wink:

Any more like this and JR will have to create a Pentax User Voyeur Forum :lol: Seriously though, a stunning capture of a truly remarkable event. Colour, sharpness and DOF couldn't be better, IMHO, and the chosen crop finishes the whole off nicely! Well done that man! Jon P.S. I hope you remembered to get the models to sign a release form before uploading :twisted:

Well I'm certainly glad you did :!: The image is both fascinating and visually stunning.

I would love to upload some of my older images but mine, unlike yours, would be disqualified on t ...

Really 'took my breath away', which is apposite given the subject matter:!: Seriously impressed and, like pauljay, would love to know how. Jon:wink:

A successful and interesting capture in every regard - bravo, mon ami! Jon:wink:

I, too, like this. Have you tried using a 'clone tool' to remove the detractors in the background? Jon:wink:
