Thank you for the tip about looking for a focal point Shady.

For some reason, whenever I take landscape shots, I try to frame the photo (with something at either side) and so I think you've hit the nail on the head, I end up with nicely framed shots with nothing in the middle! It's funny, isn't it? I think we get into these habits and then stick to them for no very good reason. I'm going out to try your way today to see if they look better, I feel sure they will.

Mine always end up with me thinking 'why on earth did I take that photo?'

Thanks. 🙂
