Good symmetry. I think this works much better if you crop it just above the tree on the right, the rest of the sky adds nothing. It's also a little dark, a tweak of the levels would work wonders.

Okay thanks Ian. I didnt really want to tweak anything. Its a scanned negative and what I wanted was what came out of the camera.
If Id shot this digitally I would have tweaked it etc etc. I also would have cropped it too.

I'm not sure why it being film stops you from tweaking it Paul, after all that's what many would have done in the wet process. Smile

I do agree with you and with the next films I shot I will tweak and enhance. With my first rolls I just wanted to see what sort of feedback Id get with a straight scanned neg.
