    Hello Robert and welcome.

    The composition works very well in this image, I like the eye level. The image can be sharper and perhaps cropped a hair more from the top to remove the dark area on top. The light is wonderful.

    Hi robert and a big welcome to BPN.

    Beautiful lighting in this image and a pleasing composition. I find the image does appear a little soft and cropping the top of the image to remove the black would strengthen this capture.

    Great light and setting! I would also crop a bit off the top (and maybe right) and apply some S/H. Overall it could go a tad brighter for my taste.

    A warm welcome to you. You have created a very pleasing image with a nice composition and pose. Such nice light and setting, but sad it ain't tack sharp.

    Nice image wioth a good composition and nice light. It does seem to be a bit soft and dark. I also like the idea of cropping out the dark area at the top.

    Love the light and this is a beautiful scene. Pretty, warm color. Not quite sharp enough.

    Hi Bob,
    What a beautiful image--striking colors and pose in beautiful light. As the others have remarked, it is a bit soft as presented here--I think it will sharpen up a bit.
    Good work!

    Welcome to BPN, Robert. Love the colours and contrast in this. Agree about the sharpness.
