Battled with this one - kids wanted to go kayaking so we ended up WRONG side of the river.:(
Sun not in my favour.

Very nice Jeni, I would like you to open up the blacks along the breast line toward the bottom and add some canvas on the tail area...good show...:cool:

looks good to me, jeni!! well framed, nice exposure. just a little dark in the breast area, but you got a really nice bg! there is a line coming in from the right frame about middle way up that is a little distracting. almost looks like a crack.

Hi Jeni:

I agree with Harold aka Hawkeye, and can see line once he pointed it out. take you 2 seconds to fix it :)

Love the photo . . .

Thanks for sharing.

Jeni, Harold & Gus know alot more than me when it comes to exposure so I'm sure they are right-but my first glance was an oh wow! and still is. Great job.

Like the warm tones and the pose Jeni. Might try to open up the blacks as per Gus's suggestion. I like your framing.
