absolutely smashing !
If printing large, i would consider content aware fill on the last few specular highlights on the water ending them just above the branch.
Do you plan to offer prints for sale ?

I like the framing here a lot, but I like the color one ("Lone Spartina"). I'd like to see a color version of this one.

Thank you Eric and "degrub'.

Here's a color version.
Eric, What do you think ?

Mr. "degrub": Glad you like it. Will look into those specular highlights. I do have this for sale. It's app. 17.5" x 11.5". It's not yet up on my website.

That version looks really nice to me.
Those last few specular highlights don't spoil it for me, but I also think Degrub's suggestion might even strengthen it a bit more.

I have a slight preference for the color version but both are stunning.
Well done.

Very good. I wonder how it would look like with the plant in focus.

Thank you Francois.
Glad you enjoy both of them.
Your support to all of us is irreplaceable.

Paulo, here's the only image I have with the grass plant in focus.
Curious to know how it looks to you.

The slightly out-of-focus grass didn't bother me very much, but seeing this new, sharper image I like this one best so far.

I find this last version more natural. My vote would go this this one.
