Welcome to the list. Good looking boy! Not bad photographically for an early effort. But it's oversaturated and perhaps slightly soft. The softness could either be caused by it being slightly out of focus or by motion blur that might occur if you used too slow a shutter speed. The saturation can be dialed down in photoshop. It might also be a wee bit too blue. Pics shot in shade usually need a bit of white balance correction toward the warm side. I might also have framed this as a vertical, but that's largely a matter of taste. Paul On Dec 13, 2007, at 12:36 AM, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
