Thank you for your comment, it is difficult to strike a balance on this kind of photo with strong contrast between the subject and the light sky background. That said I think I can probably make it a bit less overpowering in some shots.

Wasn't that bad, I didn't even notice it until the comment above pointed it out! Nice shots, good to see a 33 and a 47 earning a living!

bet that '33' was working hard

Probably letting the 47 do all the hard work!
