Hi Malcolm,

I fixed the missing image; somehow the ".com" bit was missing from the url after "TinyPic" word.

The image just isn't sharp I'm afraid.

It is a very nice place and on the whole, I like the composition, but it might benefit feom just a tad more space between the reflection and the frame edge.

Thanks Dave much appreciated

No worries, here's an idea of what I meant;

Original:


As described:


20 pixels added to lower edge and clone filled from above
LCE with USM 10% 30px 0th.
Sharpen with USM 100% 0.4px 1 th.

The sharpening didn't work as well as I'd hoped since there are already dark line halos which I didn't want to make worse - you shouldn't have that problem with the original.

LCE = Local Contrast Enhnancement
USM = UnSharp Mask (a method of sharpening)
% = amount
px = radius (in pixels)
th = threshold, a level of pixels below which the effect is not applied (helps avoid sharpening noise)

Hope that helps,
