    What a lovely study!

    …so well seen!!!

    I think the "hand tugging the britches" part hits the nail right on the head!

    …that picture could never be posed as effectively!

    Nice job!

    BTW: I might crop slightly (to get rid of all to the left of the "M" in "Mark's")

    Thanks Will :D,
    You should have seen me fumbling with my camera to get the shot, praying the little hand was in the same position for a couple of seconds.

    Fun shot!

    BUT... where's the high contrast/blown highlights look?ne_nau.gif
    I actually like the processing with the many shades of gray. Looks like LR3 will open up a lot of possibilities for you.

    BTW, I recommend considering a square crop, taking off the top. The title might need changing, but then the wording at the top would not distract from the main subject.

    Believe it or not, I had it processed in high contrast and loved the look, BUT...I lost the guy on the left looking at the comics, that entire area was lost in the dark--then the 1/2 price sign was completely blown out and blinding! So I settled for this--it's killing me:)

    About the sign. I have to disagree there only because to me it's important that it's a comic bookstore and that they are looking at comic books and superheroes, to me it's part of the charm of the shot--or maybe I'm just getting full of myself rolleyes1.gif.

    Yes it is-_I was headed to the "de LaVega museum" store and spotted this on my way, right on St. Mark's place.
