    Smile Reworked version

    For completeness and to practice the techniques I have re-worked my first effort following the comments made - see attached.

    I went for a squarer crop; darkened the sky and grass slightly and darkened the highlights and halo on the water as well as dodging the castle.

    Cheers

    Taffy

    This second rendition is much better IMO! Now my eye goes to the reason you took (and titled) the image in the first place

    The second crop is much better. I think the castle is now too bright - it seems to be glowing. Well done.
