A beauty - well done

Very nice detailed shot and the background is very good! I know this is not in the critique forum but I think for me it would work better as a portrait crop and lose most of the blank space on the left hand side. Right now the subject has almost no place to look, all the room in the picture is behind the subject. If you cropped it the subject would fall more into the rule of thirds guidelines and would be better placed in the photo. Very nice shot, Jeff :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Thanks for your nice comments! , your suggestion is well received. I tried the crop after I read your post and the pic does look much better. You're in my favorite part of the USA ... I was born in Gulfport and know the area well.
