Spare, very lovely. Tough composition, but think you've done the most with it.

Thanks, Wayne! I googled this Cibachrome thing, but am a rank amateur so I have to ask. What's the benefit to cibachrome printing?

Beautiful! And I agree with Wayne this would make a great large print Cibachrome or not. I'll let Wayne splane Cibachrome...At one time it was the finest large print you could make if you had the printing equipment and training or you could have one made a custom photo lab that handled Cibachrome printing.

I think this shot would be more effective as a horizontal-see what you think-nice eye!

Thanks, everyone!

Therese, I'll play with cropping it to horizontal (as it is now, that is 100% of the original RAW file, no cropping yet).
