This is so nice. You have made a great image out of something most would walk by, Well done stave !
Steve Sharp replied

Thanks Ric, as you know as a photographer, you start to ‘see’ things you wouldn’t have done as a non-photographer!
George Swann

What absolutely gorgeous rich colours Steve, this is a beautiful composition, great DoF. Why do you want to change your camera??
Steve Sharp replied

Ah well, you know cameras George, until the perfect one comes out, I’ll always be hankering for something a little bit better :) (its really my only material weakness… nothing else really gets me like this other than camera gear!)

Priya ...

I know so very little of camera techniques, lighting and taking good photos. But my eyes know what they like and as per usual they are captivated by your pictures.
Steve Sharp replied

Thankyou :), one of the secrets of good landscapes is to be out early, late, and in uncertain weather… all atmosphere is natural then :)
