Yea, I did use a tripod, I was taking shots of something else and swung round when I saw this vista. Forgot all about the ISO. DOH! :0oI fully intend to go back and re-do this one when time permits.
Thanks for the feedback.

Very nice composition!Pity the sharpness is not good, which is maybe due to your shutter speed: you can't control 1/8s at 300mm by hand...why did you not increase ISO?
Or did you use a tripod? In that case you probably forgot to turn of the IS, which tends to blur the focus then.
Cheers, Thijs.
