Hello Tad. Very nice framing and beautiful subject. Nice detail in the shade. I like seeing the river bed (did you use a polarizer?). I find your main subject too bright. It doesn't look the best and the detail is lacking. Using curves or levels, or something similar, to bring the brightness down, while maintaing your shade brightness, would help a lot. Yes, I think the photo loses quite a lot by being too bright. I would also get rid of the frame and instead make the photo larger. I would give it 5 out of 7 points. If you had the main subject nicely exposed it would be an easy 7. BTW, do you shoot with your Mamma Mia all the times, or just for the "good" shots? Cheers, Micheal
