Jim,

Great image! The shadow contours create an amazing effect. I like the tone and saturation as well. Can I ask you the particulars of the camera settings of how you put this all the together? I can't imagine you hand held this. Every time I try something with dark and light contrast near a window, it tends to tend to get blown out in areas or too dark in others. It seems like you have the perfect balance as well some very nice sharpness.

Spot meter on the sunlight area, underexpose 0.3 stops, low contrast, FLASH or daylight white balance, and desaturate slightly.
