Actually even though I'm biased, I think its great (now can I have that new lens dear???) - Quentin

Hi Glynis - this is wonderful - lovely texture - altogether good. It's great to see you posting here - you'll have to nab the Kodak and post some in the competition as well. Kind Regards jono

Hello David, thanks for your positive comments. Unfortunatlely I have very little time to post pics for pleasure (I spend much of my day running our small stock library and keeping Quentin under control!), but I will try at least one more before the competion closes - Glynis

Hi Glynis, this is wonderfully lovely. Now I see where Quentin (aka the old devil) gets his inspiration. Nice to have you participating in the Challenge.....hope you'll continue to grace us with your work. -- DF

Thanks very much, Flick, for your kind comments. I gave up trying to keep Quentin under control years ago :-) - Glynis

Beautiful image, Glynis. I love the tonal range here and the subtle blending of fawn and brown.
Good to see you here - you can keep the old devil under control ;-)
Flick.
