Greetings all.

I got this shot while in Monaco last weekend.
It was a photo display (Some really nice ones) and this little girl was weaving in and out of the display. I managed to get this shot.

I really like it. Anything I could have done better?:dunno
My comment is "Blue sea on the right is distracting"

re 'could have done anything better'-

if there is somebody else will have to tell you-

I think it's a very neat photo and shows what I've said before, that I believe you have an eye for composition-

if the sea is distracting to you, crop it out; that will show your pink girl a little more-

re:cropping. I did that and looks far better. See http://crispin.smugmug.com/photos/61802314-M-1.jpg

Thanks!

try bringing the girl out a little more-

maybe select with color range--get the pink coat and add her face to it and then tweak with levels and curves to 'pop' it-

composition is 50% luck, 50% having your camera available and 50% talent (50 looks better than 33 1/3)-
