Funny, I didn't really think much of this shot and didn't "feature" it in any way for add-ons. Client liked it the best of all and ended up ordering a 16x20 stretch canvas of it.

Goes to show, don't pre judge your own images or what the client may or may not like.

    I remember this set B and I think I like this shot the best of all the ones you shared. Lighted is great. The composition is really nice. The dark leaves really frame her in well and the leading lines of the steps pull you into her eyes. Awesome.

    I'd have to see the rest to know if I think this one stands out or not, but I love everything about it. Great lighting on this shot. Her eyes are pretty amazing. The pictures people pick almost always surprise me.

    Thanks for the kind words everyone. I owe it to many of you here on this board for the improvements I have made in my outdoor photography during the past year. For this, I thank you.

    So the shot is great...I might have tossed it because it is tilted and to fix it th cropping might not be optimal. But then just look at her face and hand position..just gorgeous!
