      Raw is a foreign language to most of us Point and Shoot TOGS Woo.
      I only ever like to see a rose as it is - as good old Mother nature raised it and showed it to me.
      Any idea what variety it is? No pressure Woo - in the next 20 minutes will be fine...

          I admire your restraint Woo. My OH has gone out snow clearing to escape the moaning in this house :snork:

          Hi Jenny I'm not sure about restraint Jenny its more a case of I just can't control the weather like I used to and anyway Mrs Woo always says that empty vessels make the most noise;)

              Looks good Woo. Is that Southend Pier? How long it that stetch of walkway?
              If I had to nitpick, the only OCD niggle for me is that the 2 pieces of railing in the foreground - opposite each other, do not quite match,

                Nicely chosen Woo and has worked pretty well. If I'm going to get nit picky I have to agree with Jenny's comment and also suggest that you could do with a one degree roll to port :) I did also think that a mono version would work well, but after trying one I think that the simple muted colours and the blue railings work better.
                1ChathamRiverside.jpg (Actually, after seeing my edited version maybe another half degree roll ??)

                      What a lovely sky Woo! The buildings look a bit pale but the horizon, with the trees still asleep, is very pleasing to the eye. Lots going on to keep the interest,
                      Jenny
