Thanks for the comments Steve! Perspective and shadows aren't my favourite dish, and of course being me I had to do Photoshops with both of them included but your comments helped, thanks!

Thanks Steve. It was one of those new wireless bulbs. You must have seen them in the shops!?
I loved doing both of these images and, so it seems, did everyone else. Well done to all.

Off on my hols to Provence so probably won't be around for a couple of weeks.

Thanks Steve the Refraction gave me the most problems on this image I'm familiar with the refraction of the background where a goldfish bowl is used as that's very simply the Spherise Tool, in this case the refraction was to try to wrap the background around a cylindrical shape and I tried to use the Spherise Tool set to 'Vertical Only' but it never really created the warp I wanted. Any suggestions?

Thanks Steve.

It's not an installation van - if you zoom in, you can see that it's a Channel 4 OB van for Grand Designs.

Thank you Steve for your comments.

I didnt even think about the rear of the dome. However, I did think of cutting off Rapunzel's hair, but just couldnt do it. Kept wondering how long it must of taken her to grow it to such a length

Thanks Steve, the peace sign is indeed real, the photo was from this past spring - just added the tower and the lawn mowing guy.

Yesss! Counting the days 'til the end of this administration. We're hoping there's something salvageable left for the next guy.
