Rosalyn Hilborne ^club has replied to Fred Fouarge ^club

The building on it was used in WWII Fred, once it was even a private zoo, but I'm not sure what it is used for now.

This is very good. The colours all come together well. The portrait aspect works nicely. The sky is saturated and I'm guessing a polariser was used.

Rosalyn Hilborne ^club has replied to The Limbo Connection ^club

Thank you for your kind appraisal. Yes used a polariser.
