    Love it Mike! Can you burn the stroller cover and the young woman's head covering in a bit, or is it just too blown out?

    Or this, so we have more of a sense there's a kid there she's yelling at, and so the white of her hat isn't as distracting? (Unless this changes what you intended.)In any case, it's a great shot - I love the expression of the woman in the upper left. 4432131693_df8c548a7a_o.jpg

    OK, I did a little more work to the blown out area in the middle and upgraded the photo in the first post.

    Nice shot, Mike. Bringing the detail back into the blown areas really helps it out, too.

    Could I recommend leaving your originals as well as the revisions in the future? It sure makes the thread a better resource for those who weren't around to follow it from the beginning.
