Any body feeling so overburdened by LBA could lighten the load by giving to Technoblurbs home for bewildered photographers, especially if your LBA is biased towards lenses with the little insignificant '*' on them

I prefer Grahams crop but not sure I'd have gone as far with the colour, perhaps on the beer and table but not the background.
In hindsight I probably would not have over saturated the background image quite so much, I was to focused on the booz.

Nice idea, although it should be a good Ale. On a more practical point the shot feels a little off balance compositional IMO and I was not quite sure how to articulate why, so I downloaded it for the purpose of trying a few minor adjustments, I hope this does not offend.

The first change I made was to alter the levels slightly by pulling in the black slider slightly, this for me gave it more depth of field stopping the background overpowering the foreground, I also cropped the image slightly reducing some of the sky, RHS & bottom this had the effect of bringing the glass closer, reducing the angle of view and placing the slim part of the glass in the intersection of the bottom right & centre thirds, the final tweak I made was to increase the contrast just a touch .

That aside it reminded me of many waking trips to the Langdale Valley and sitting in the Stickle Barn Beer garden and for that alone it pushes every button.

Nice set, I'm well impressed with the first one. I was skulking round our country park at the weekend, no dragon flies yet.

Well someone has to do it, so every one else can feel superior.
