  Bishop’s Road, near Downhill, Co. Derry.
  I thought the markings on the bridge walls contrasted with and emphasised the other colours.
  Just a tad of HDR.

  Nice colours Tom, would maybe have moved to the left a little more
  not sure the right foreground adds to it, like the way the road leads
  you into the picture.

  Jenny, must agree; that corner doesn’t sit well.
  Thanks for your comment,

  This curve leads very nicely into the frame.

  A square crop might work well with this. Try taking a little of the right hand side to see what I mean.

  I’ve driven this road many times. Fantastic views. I keep meaning to get up to the Gortmore picnic area for a sunset.

  Andy, Some experimental cropping might indeed yield better results and yes, lovely area in itself with great viewpoints.
  Thanks,

  Yep, a square crop would finish this off nicely.

  I have tried some crops based on suggestions and I think this one works.
  Thanks to all for useful feedback.
