I just love some of the work that Chris - sirch55 - has been posting of late.

And this image is no exception. I have no idea what he did to it in post, but I love the outcome.

Well done, Chris. Here's the original thread.

Yes, this has quite an ethereal feel to it and I like it a lot.

Well done Chris and nice choice Gary.

I hate it :rotfl2:

But seriously guys and gals thanks so much for your words as they encourage me, and hopefully others, to think outside the box and post images up.
