Thank you, Christine -- and thanks for the kind words on the B&W shot, as well. :)

I'm actually kind of anxious to deliver this set to her mother. They really did turn out much better than I thought they would given the weather. And I think they represent, as a whole, my best work to date. Out of a total of just over 100 shots, a little under half were what I consider keepers.

That's excellent, Walt!  What I think really works here is the 
composition--great balance of all the elements.  I think I agree with Bruce 
about the contrast; I might like the overall rendering just a tad softer to 
compliment the expression and setting--though that's personal taste--and I 
don't mean a soft focus by the way.  She does have beautiful skin.  Very pretty 
young lady!

Cheers, Christine

Here's a color shot of Amaya (the young lady from my last PESO). As a capture 
of the subject, I really like it. The background, though, I'm not sure of.

(Didn't realize the shutter speed until I just now looked it up to post the 
info. Yikes!)

Thoughts?
