At the time I took the picture, I was focused on framing her profile against the sky and wasn't paying attention to what was reflected in the puddle. After seeing the result, I also wondered about the reflection. I think it would have been better with her profile reflected or with no reflection, but after studying the picture I realized that to add her reflection I would have had to have lowered my viewpoint and moved to the right. This would have placed her head against foliage. Of course I'm not good enough to have thought about all this during the few seconds I had to snap the shutter before she moved, and shooting film didn't give me a result to think about immediately after. I don't own a digital camera, but can see they have definite advantages. When you shoot digitally, do you find yourself taking more "adjustment" shots after seeing the image, or do you "pre- visualize" as with film and move on?
