Hey all,
Thought I would just post my Daf pic for comments. Took the pic today and then fettled with the image via software to get a blue background and try to make the Daf appear more sharp. Cheers all :)

why don't you just use the sky as the blue background?

Sorry but I just don't like it. It looks very garish, unnatural and not manipulated enough to look artistic. It's just neither one thing or the other. What did the original look like?:thumbsdown:

A very bold statement Ronald but there again so was Andy Warhol. Welcome to the forum ;)

Too OTT for me, and I like bold colors.

It's getting better. I still would prefer it a bit more natural as the background is too dominant.
