Well done Nancy, I really liked this image too! Strong images by Judy, Jackie, and Michael as well. As most of you know, this is one of my favorite themes and it's great to see how we have all learned so much about it and how to find these lighting situations. Fun stuff! Thanks for judging Christopher, great job as always!
