Colmar Wocke 3 years ago

Stephen,

Lovely one - soft "natural" light, together with all the "traces of nature" that lends your picture its "street credibility".

Colmar (used to live in Somerset West).

Stephen Edds Great to hear from you Colmar....and where are you now ?
Many thanks !

Colmar Wocke Stephen,

I have written it on my introduction on OE.
