    I do like that first shot Les ....very nice

    I would have maybe pulled the highlights down a tad as they seems a little blown here

      Thanks Ian, I did check the highlights (and pulled them back a touch) in editing, and they look fine apart from an odd speckle?

              Very nice set Les, but do like that 1st image. Very well composed.

                Not easy to get the exposure right and these have been handled very well. The first one is the best in my opinion.

                  I too like the first image and would say it was well exposed.
                  Not always an easy task.
