Very striking, Yegor. Great colours and vibrant detail. I think I might have removed the pale flower on the left before shooting. But a great shot.

BTW - did you know your files are 3MB?

[Skitalez]

Thanx)))) What about 3 mb? It's too much?
There is a greater difference between the original and that, "as is" at a forum. At present I still work above a photo. Yes, the flower at the left really is very much allocated. Here still a photo

Well, it can take a while to download for people on slow connections and to be honest, for a 1600 x 1024 image, it is unnecessary, I guess you must have been saving at jpg quality 12 or similar?

The one here, at approx. 800 kB is perfectly acceptable quality, and it is still 1600 x 1064 (in 'round' figures) and I doubt anyone could see a difference.

Very vibrant colours and very good control of the light. Nice work.

I did not aspire to make the greater size. I have simply opened in PS and have kept as JPEG. It has probably turned out too much, I have not looked.

Thanx! I'm glad)))

No, I appreciate that Yegor, it does pay to watch the quality figure, I find it usually stays where I last set it, but occasionally goes right up to 12 (max) again, and if I don't notice ....

Cheers,
