While I had no difficulty with this id, I should point out that it is sometimes helpful if you can reduce the shadowing before you post the image as we can't do it after the image is posted. I use Photoshop but I understand Snapseed is a good one for mobile phone images. Something that might be helpful in the future.
Cheers John

Hi @wombey thanks for the suggestion. I was questioning how much I should try to do that in regards to altering colours etc. This is from my proper camera and I have edited on my computer. I will keep in mind for future postings.
