It's not about the arm! Just curious, what benefit would an out of focus arm be to you?

Not attacking, just wondering would it would add for you is all.

Thanks

Thank you for taking the time to give some feedback. I was actually second guessing the vignette myself, perhaps it's not needed or too heavy handed.

Thanks again for your kind words Donn, take care.

Can anyone elaborate on why they think this photo is so "average"? Am I too attached to it because it's my own image?

Thank you in advance for your time.

I have the same tree, but at sunset: http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=1858531

Glad to see it still there. :)

Thanks for your input. The past year or so I have been overusing the Dutch Tilt, so for some reason I am SO used to it that I just don't look at it really, but need to start toning it down. A lot of times I use it to compose the image better, i.e. eliminating distracting things in the background. I feel as though if I took this "correctly" it would have been boring and static. I see the tilt as "energy" and not necessarily tension.

Thanks again.

Did you shoot this with Michelle Turner? I saw almost the same image on her web site?

Todd

Thank you for your kind words, I appreciate that.

That's my friend Chris and his daughter in this photo. :)
