    Very good Brian.

    I have captured these but never one with such good eye detail.

    Good, but I wonder about a slight crop from the bottom and right side to produce an even more dramatic scene?

    Very good Brian, I like it.

    I didn't have any views on the crop before I read Geoff's suggestion, having looked again and experimented with dragging the LyteBox window around my screen, my only thought would possibly to lose some off the right hand side (RHS), but not any other edge. May be just as far as until the diagonal at top edge just meets the RHS.

    Cheers,
    Dave

    I struggled with the crop. There is just something not right but eventually I went with what you see.
