lol your work is soooo underappreciated. I love how you framed the background buildings between the two stacks. Very nice composition.

Somehow I missed this. How on earth does something great like this score below a 5? Oh I get it - wasn't obvious enough hahaha. You take incredibly awesome candids. The ones I have seen so far look almost like they were posing for you. I love how bright the red is and I love the DOF. Beautiful photo.

Thanks, Deb (Melethia). You have a good memory! Actually, it was your positive comment on the earlier version that encouraged me to take another look at it. And yes, I experimented with the post processing to help combat the over-exposed areas.

Here's the one I originally posted as an outtake for Movie Titles II (I hid it from view during the challenge):

I recall this from a side challenge I think - and if I recall it correctly, you did a wonderful job of editing it for the challenge - this came out great!

great image. I really like the symmetry here.

Maybe bump up the contrast and adjust the shadows and highlights (in PS3 if oyu have it).
