It is a nice shot of a lovely place Dave but for me there is no focal point to hold my eye - sorry.

Hi Irv

Its not really about a focal point, I dont think you could have one in this type of scene its more about the overall atmosphere and ambience  of the place, not sure if others will agree with me, we'll see from subsequent posts if it gets any LOL, thanks for your comments :)

I like it, very nice shot, not got down there myself, go to Devon LOTS as both mine and the MRS's parents live in Devon....been to the Hurlers and the Cheesewrings though and went to Trevethy Quoit (not far from the Hurlers)....some shots of those on my flickr page...Like the reflections of the lights etc I know a judge would probably say just trim a bit off the bottom as there's nothing but dark there but that's just an opinion not a criticism...overall I think it's a very nice shot  :tup:
