Hi Nathan,
I love the innocents and the nice smile, the hand on the chin, the colour as 
it's life! :-) Your usual excellent capture! :-)

HOWEVER? Ready? And this is what the old guy is for ..... C&C?  the tiniest 
nit picking things that make the difference to an astute viewer and a happy 
snapper looking! :-) :-) :-) Not insinuating for the blink of an eye you are 
a "Happy Snapper!"

READY AGAIN? ;-)

As tiny as it is, as soon as you notice it, then each time you go back to 
the photo as it opens your re-action is.............. READY???????? :-)

"It's cropped crooked!".......................................... The 
teensiest bit! :-) Yeah I know... it's nit picking! HOWEVER!

And right now there are going to be people who will say "OH FOR CRYING OUT 
LOUD! GET OVER IT! IT'S HARDLY NOTICEABLE!" The problem with that attitude 
is........ it's the difference between a photo editor's absolute dedicated 
professionalism and assisting in each of us improving our photography!

Look at it carefully and there is room to make the tiny crop to straighten 
it. On the right hand side it looks like big fridge doors? That gives you an 
obvious vertical line that is off. On the left side it's not quite as 
noticeable but once pointed out you will forever see it each time you look 
at this neat photo-moment. It's a very slight adjustment I know . But that's 
the difference between perfection and not!

Please take no personal offence as the comment is what is asked for by so 
many when they post. C&C

I agree it's a nit picking comment, but that's what makes each of us look 
just a little harder each time and always looking for perfection in our 
visual photo productions.

cheers,
ted
