I welcome any feedback you can give. My biggest challenge with this

picture was exposure. I felt that while the boy was exposed "ok", the

water got overexposed - especially at the right-hand side. I 'dodged'

(via photoshop) the water at the top of the image because I liked the

texture and wanted to balance the top/bottom.

I don't recall the camera settings used, but what would you do

differently? Meter for the subject and try to 'repair' the

overexposure afterwards?

I am also just getting the hang of cropping. I think this picture was

easier for me because of the direction of the subject, leaving a long

trail to the right and pushing against the left edge. Does the

cropping leave you wanting something else?

I welcome any feedback you may have, especially about this picture's

composition.

Do you think there are certain subjects that are so "good" that it is

more difficult to take a "bad" picture of them? I kind of felt that

way about the Golden Gate.

Thanks!
