Well done mate, your work is nicely symmetrical as an arrow point should be. Keep going with this skill so we can get pointers from an expert when needed :)

Getting there Kim, it is a real art. I liked the second photo, effective lighting - a tripod would have been handy.

Well done! It'll be something special when you whack one of them through a beast! :D
It's the great, big, broad land 'way up yonder,
It's the forests where silence has lease;
It's the beauty that thrills me with wonder,
It's the stillness that fills me with peace.
