Nothing against your daughter but there's not enough light on her face IMHO. In the alternate the people are small enough in the picture that they're more puctuation in the photo, rather than the main point of interest, so they can go dark without making me want to see them better. In your main photo your daughter is clearly the center of interest with the mountains as a backdrop so the light on her needs to be brighter. - -- Doug Herr Birdman of Sacramento http://www.wildlightphoto.com - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
