Thank you Greg Yes, 30 cm WD. I always try for 1:1 or full frame images and only crop when there's really not other way.

Beautiful shot Desc1234. I like the composition and the fading background. The yellow color could be a bit more intensive. Maybe by increasing the vibrance a bit? Just to give it a try.

Thank you, Helix_2648, for the support and constructive criticism. Perhaps it's my background as a BW documentary photographer, but I've always tended to be reserved with colour saturation and contrast and err on the side of caution. Sometimes I do wonder whether my colour looks a bit muted and I might try to bump up saturation and vibrance in post in future.
