Nice composition - looks likely peak time was passed
Thank you junglialoh, I am glad you like the image. You are right, the peak colours are passed. But I happened to be in Milton and wanted to give it a shot.
I wished I had the 27mm 1.2 Viltrox PRO. It would have given me some better options.

Thank you Douglas. I hope I can still catch some remaining colours. For the first time I have used the 16 : 9 format. What do you think about that size?

I think the small trees in the foreground are a nice surprise and help this shot a lot. In terms of the format you mention (16:9) I think there is too much distracting empty sky on the left hand side; it draws my eye. Have you considered boosting the color saturation a bit with photo editing?

Thank you for your comment and suggestion, Ken. I have not tried colour boosting. What you see is a JPEG image (I only shoot JPEG) and it is the setting I use in WW. I could of course try a higher saturation in the JPEG editing software.
The day of the shot was a very poor light, gray atmosphere. I was actually surprised about the amount of colours I was able to extract. The exif data says contrast, saturation, sharpness, all as normal.

P.S. Ken, I did boost the colour saturation however, I went a bit overboard so, I don't want to change the photo in this post. I need to practice with the saturation boost but keep it in the realm of discreet and then apply it on other photos.
But I can see where it could improve the "crispness" of an image taken in drab light.
