This shot was almost a complete accident. Shot with a Canon eos 10d. For my first month as an aspiring photographer, I was shooting on the auto setting until someone explained ios and aperture to me. I practiced a few hours and the nextday took the best photo of my budding hobby. I feel with this shot, the budding has become a small bloom. Sure the photos of my girlfriend in fairy and vampire costumes are apealing, but I feel this is REAL photography. The only edit was a small color saturation with microsoft office picture manager and bump up in midtones. Anyway, hope you enjoy!

This is a picture any parent would be proud of. Now study the rule of thirds. Good start.....
Be sure and write a review on the Canon........

She is great, I think the image would be stronger if you cropped a bit from one side or the other.

To get a traditional look you would crop most of the space past her feet on the right but I think it would look pretty interesting to crop from the left to entirely remove the tree.

As it is you have her right smack in the center of the frame and that makes the picture very static/frozen. I think it you do one of the crops the image will be a lot more lively.
