Sometimes the environment is more important then the subject...

and wow, did I get soaked taking this shot!

thanks for looking... still digging in the old files.

edit.. for some reason, the image from photobucket showed up really soft... another try here...

Nice low angle, Ray--and interesting light. Some I am sure would like a head turn back--but it does not bother me as I am a fan of enviormental images!

Hi Raymond,
I like the first post as presented. You have good details and a great head angle...:cool:

Hi Ray,
I like the angle, environment, and feel of this image. Reflects the current weather outside my door. The line of light (surface of rock?) on the left draws my eye because of the line, not necessarily the brightness. I wouldn't remove it but maybe blend/smooth the transition?

thanks Steve.. the forground is the top of the water, this was a floating log at the mouth of the creek nearby our home., maybe a bit of blur across it would help.

firefox was my problem, I need to view this site in IE from now on.
