Reaching for the Sky

very nice, striking colours, nicely composed.

I'd maybe just clone out those two red petals in the blue sky on the right edge of the frame

I really like that. Like cathus says, great colours.

Cracking shot and composition. Low angle really works well.

Thank you everyone for your kind comments. Cathus, I didnt notice those two petals. But I agree, they are a little distracting. When I click on the 'larger image' + sign in the gallery, my photos are still massive!! What's the best resolution/dimensions to use when uploading?

[Cathus]

I tend to resize my shots to 800px at the longest side since this is usually the largest size allowed in forums where most of my shots get posted. In this forum they will be resized smaller but I usually make my photo clickable so you can see it a bit larger.

I think you can post larger shots than 800px in your gallery & then make them clickable but I don't really use the gallery as I host my shots on my own server.

Thanks for your help Cathus. I'll try that on my next upload

Lovely shot, and totally agree with Cathus. Whip those two fella's out, and it'll look great

Thanks for your comments Matt. I've reposted the 'cloned' version and it just cleans the edge off
I'm still trying to get used to uploading 'clickable' photos. Think Ive got it now
