Just a quick casual shot obviously. I'm completely biased of course, but I love this one.<< Hoppy, And rightly so, you should be bias with a fine looking young lady as this. Looks like not a bad shot for a "quick grab and click!" However a small word of caution which I'm sure you're aware of already. :-) She is wearing glasses and the one thing that ruins a picture of this nature quicker than anything else? .. If the frames cut through the eyes or eye! It'll kill a shooter every time no matter how good the rest of the picture is. Yep I also know there's always lots happening in a shot. In most cases don't worry about it, watch the eye glass frames ahead of all else. Damn fine photo in any case! :-) ted
