           | I thought the "halo" was one of the best features of this shot, Dottie! Just shows how tastes vary, I guess. Dave.

           | Unusual and striking lighting, Dottie, and I like the "halo". Wonder what would happen if you used something to reflect some light back up into her face and eyes. (She has gorgeous eyes.)

           | haha, I'll do that but I actually added a diffuse glow to the top thinking it would accentuate the mood. I played around with this pic so much I was cross-eyed by the time I finished. At that point I picked the one I thought best gave my message. That's the beauty of this site though isn't it? Lots to learn and lots of folk to learn from... Thanks for all of your comments & support. Dottie

           | Nice shot with a wonderful mood. Have you considered a tighter crop to close in on her face (and to eliminate those pesky blown-out highlights on the top of her head)? Cheers,
 --George

           | Hi Dottie, I like this portrait of the two, I think the blue hue gives it a more artisitic feel.
