This one really grew on me. Lovely study of texture and colour. Quite calming to look at.

Comments about scenes/subjects that are "done to death" are generally made by people who sit in front of computer screens instead of actually out shooting. Its not that important about how popular ...

So you actively avoid shooting astro, for example, as its a cliché?

If only we could be as original as you!
