Wow thanks for your kind words :-) i think the main thing for me is regularly going out with the camera and taking photos whenever possible. I had a day where i just decided to take off in the car and lose myself for a few hours, if i'd stayed home i wouldnt of taken this ! I do a regular trip every week with hesitant after work and we compete with each other, its fun but pushes you to try that little bit harder to improve ! I normaly have toast and coffee for breakfast if it helps ;-)

I just noticed your recent run of achievements: Six consecutive challenges with HM or better and 10 out of the last 13 challenges with HM or a ribbon. I'm not sure what you are eating for breakfast, but I need to eat some too. Seriously, though, that's an astounding achievement! Congratulations.

Would have preferred the exposure to be a bit longer and the processing a tiny bit less cooked, but otherwise very good image.
