Many thanks everyone for your generous comments and also for the blue. This is my first attempt at "messing with photo's" (my wife's words) think maybe she is a purist and maybe she is right, but judging by everyone's reaction I may give it another go.

Congratulations - you certainly deserve it.

I can't imagine how long it would take to plow out that sand! I hope there is a sand plow and that people don't need to shovel!!

Great shot!

About Cowgazer
Cowgazer I am Peter, brought up in the center of Manchester, UK. But was a square peg in a round hole there, worked 33 years as stockman in dairy farming then made redundant. Luckily got a job managing a garden nursery for a couple of years, but had to leave as tenancy came to an end. Couldn't find work so relocated to Wales and am now a self-employed gardener, great move, good things come out of hard times. Digital tech has made photography affordable to me and I love it, compliments my walking and Birdwatching. At present on a steep learning curve, new things are always good, stretch your mind and keep you sane-ish.
