What a superb shot for a first post. Great symmetry, excellent sharpness and a lovely background. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: (However, it would look even better at the recommended 900 pixels image size).

Personally, I think I would prefer to see it without the "picture frame", which I think distracts somewhat from the image itself when posted in a forum contex, although I'm equally sure that it would look great as a mounted print :cheers
