Lol - that crane is as much part of the landscape as the church tower next to it - it has been there since at least 2012 when I first visited! They don't build fast in Italy ....

Just back from my latest visit - not much time to use the camera as I was too busy riding! Not perfect by any means ( the light wasn't the best ) but I think this image captures the joy of riding well

Well that image is certainly sharp and in focus in the right places. See the hairs around the horse's mouth. Pin sharp.

Chris nice capture but I had a look at it in Photoshop CC and worked with levels and shadow detail a bit also noise reduction. Has this helped?

You are right Eric on my corrected pix I put in nearly x1.5 stops exra exposure as well as lowering contrast and a bit of local exposure on the rider's face. Noise was also very high.

Absolutely JK - the D610 tends to overexpose in Italy so I set -0.7 - what I hadn't taken into account was the rather grey day! The noise probably a result of me using haze reduction to bring up some detail in the background - this is the original ex camera hosted on my website --

Having seen the full size image I personally think the crop is too harsh....which exacerbates the perception of under exposure. Here's my suggestion. I've cloned out the cables ...if that was the reason for the tight crop. Without selective masking increasing the mid to high tones for more background detail will also apply the same contrast to the horse...which may cause some of the markings to be over done.
