Thanks Xray, TV and Rod.
Tv, whats a shadow fill? is it fill flash or PS action.
Rod, see what you mean about the blue sky.

As Ray said there's an element of elegance here for some reason & I like this a lot. I have the feeling this may have worked better in the surreal by having a clear blue sky which would make the ring details better..............Maybe.

Good composition and pov. Methinks some shadow fill would show more details of the rim. I almost considered buying this lens but at three times the price (since the increases this year), I couldn't justify retiring my old Sigma which is still the widest full frame zoom I think.. -tv
