To do that at all from the inner suburbs is amazing.

The processing and colour choice are excellent.

Yeah wow indeed Bo! Pretty good result for inner suburban Melbourne, excellent colours to..maybe a tad more green in the reflection area but probably hard from inner Melbourne. Nice work.

Criticism...OK...how about you supplied an image not big enough for us. Yep, get the full size one up.

There. Royally slapped with a fish.

Got to love it when people achieve really nice results with very humble equipment that didn't take a mortgage to acquire.

Boom! Nice and punchy rendition. Good work, Bo! I think the background could be just a hair lighter though, looks a touch clipped, but I wouldn't push it much, I like the contrast in this one.

Thank you M&T, 9.5km from the CBD as the crow flies.

Thanks Mike, I boosted the red and blue a bit, but didn't boost green as I thought it looked ok...

OK Lewis, I now feel like Cleese getting out my Atlantic salmon for a counter slap
As I keep saying to others, it's not about getting the best equipment, it's about getting the best from your equipment!

Thank you Lee, I did clip a fraction to make the nebs jump out.

Also, if you want to see the larger file, it is here
