lovely image Oscar118, the depth it gives to the trees is great but I think the light is just a little too harsh on the wagon wheels.

I agree with Andy, too much light in one area burns out the details. Its not easy doing torchlight, so many variables to get in the way and to think about. How did you work the torchlight? It looks like you have the shadows mainly in one direction; was it just one source and one direction? Although I do see more if I look hard.

The torch was to the left of the image, single torch painting the cart and the trees behind. There was some light from a distant source in the background, at left
