[Rosie Kerr]

A lovely result for "fiddling." :) Beautiful starburst and light.

[Taffy]

@maggiemae Thanks Maggie! The three shots were taken within a few minutes of one another, all facing into the light and the lake. It was when I noticed the lighting worked for all three that I decided to put them together. So fun to create something that wasn't there, though I know the 'realists' may prefer less to no processing.

Congratulations Taffy on your photo making it to this week's Top Twenty! IMHO I think it should have finished higher!

[Taffy]

@soboy5 @johnfalconer @skipt07 Thanks for taking the time to congratulate me on this shot. Skip, very sweet of you to say! It was gratifying to see it there, as it's one that took a fair amount of work and in the end, I liked how it came out. Many thanks!

[Issi Bannerman]

I have just seen this Taffy! What a lovely image. Well done, and very deserving of a place on the top twenty!
