    Re: Anchor Lady

    She looks a little over exposed in this. Also the shot is a little tight. Not sure if it might looked better wider since it looks like there might be some distracting BG to contend with. I think the compromise would've been to have it wider on the left side, giving the statue space to look in to. but it works as it, the only real issue i have is the over exposure of the statue on my machine, other than that, the other stuff i mentioned were just nitpicks.

    Hmmm... I agree that she looks a little too stark in this photo. Try softening the edges a little and blurring the bg a bit more. I understand that she is the focal point of the picture but she looks cramped. The texture and definition in this is great and she is a captivating subject.
