Barrie, now you are making junk mail look sexy! Was that taken with the 55-200?

Not exactly your WA style but still just as good Barrie :)

At least someone knows how to use that lens :D

Great use of DOF makes this a quality image. The only distraction for me is the ugly bokeh.

You mean the octagonal highlight in the lower portion? Water drops on the gate behind I think

Indeedy I do. By harsh bokeh I meant that the lenses optical characteristics rendered them hexagonally which I find harsh. A different lens with different charactersistics would have rendered them softer.

That said - I still think it's a cracker shot.

I really like this shot Barrie, but as Peter has said the Boke is abit distracting.
