Tunnel View - Yosemite National Park

It's a great shot. If I look for areas that could be addressed, it does seem to be a bit on the blue side in the center, but it might be just a haze effect.

Ursula, that's an incredible portrait. The light and tones portray a beautiful painterly look. You work is stunningly painterly even when not trying to be! This was highly underrated. Should have been top 10!

Blue Eyes...Green Nose

You sure nailed this. The paint on the face and the shirt are all perfect elements here, as well as her beautiful eyes and innocent expression. So crisp too! I think I might have to save up for that lens. I'd love to have IS on all my lenses, even shorter focal lengths.

Once again, beautiful shot, and congratulations.

Congratulations--I've been enjoying just the thumbnail being on the front page! Striking shot, great lighting and pose. Hope someday you share your secrets (especially your recent processing trends--great stuff!)

How about starting your own "teaching" thread?

Skip this is a great shot (as you know!). After you are done enjoying the wonderful capture of expression and achievement, you get to enjoy the wonderful geometric form of the lines--from his body shape all the way to the sillouetted hand. Just superb.
