Did Lonnit just call Kelly a "moron"??! *grin* I love starting trouble. Beautiful photograph, Lonnit. I like the light... even if it 'blows some stuff'. ~Lydia

Oh, thank you, Sam! We were some distance from this path, when I saw some people catch the sunshine as they walked along it. I knew I'd be grabbing some shots when we got there, but we were going in the "wrong" direction. I leaped ahead to capture her, backlit, as she entered the sunny spot. She gave me this pose - she's a wonderful little model! - and I was awed when I looked in the viewfinder at what I'd captured. The problem, however,was that my focus was off, which led me to play with the treatment of the image in such a way as to obscure that fact. It's the ol' lemons to lemonade theory. :) ~ Lonnit

She is beautiful, so is the way you captured her soul. Regards. Sam Attal

LOL! A bit of an oxymoronic compliment! LOL! There are those with no tolerance for blown highlights. I say they can be quite artistic. Again, rules are meant to be broken. :) Thanks!! ~ Lonnit

Nicely blown highlights and softening - Kelly
