Heading Home

Heading home after a long, fun day at the Henry Doorly Zoo in Omaha.

The smaller uploaded size just doesn't do justice to the detail in the

sidewalk. I had to clone out a couple reflections spots from the UV

filter which I forgot to remove. Any suggestions for improvement?

Hi Ben! Nice photo. Maybe I'd tried moving camera a little to the left, so shadow wasn't cut (IMHO).

Best regards,

Ramon.

It is a beautifl image with wonderful use of light and shadow. Nicely done. Dan

Ramon, thanks for your input. I agree that it would be better with the camera pointed a shade farther left. Unfortunately, my son wasn't exactly standing still (nor were the rest of my family, who were right on my heels), and I was trying to maximize the amount of empty sidewalk in the shot. As I recall, there was something else located just off frame to the left. This was the best composition of about a dozen shots I took as we were walking out of the zoo. I do wish I could have gotten him closer to the right corner and included his entire shadow, but it just wasn't happening that day.
