To tell the truth Peter I find I prefer your original version! Interesting to hear why the colours were so unreal! Hope you have enjoyed your course! #8044651

I don't recall seeing the original, so I can't do a comparison. But I like the ethereal quality in this image, Peter. #8044685

Thank you Tess and Thomas. The color version got an EP and if you have time perhaps you would care to take a look at the following web site:

This image is the view from our back door looking due east. It makes for delightful mornings as the sun shines into the kitchen. We feel blessed.
