I uploaded the wrong picture. This is the one that I like better. It is a tighter crop. #2420

Hi Donna!

Personally I like the first one better (non-cropped). I just feel more "relaxed" when I look at it. There is a better ballance between empty and full space, where as the second shot has too much full space, which tends to bug the eye a bit. But to tell you the truth, both are excelent. A very "non-clishe" shot indeed.

Hope you had fun in NYC! I personally do not like the city too much. Like the AC/DC song goes....I feel safe in a cage in New York City.

Rock on,
Vasko #3883

Hey Vasco, I havn't been to the Statue since last January and am a little fearful to go to see her now. I feel real caged there. Good song, good band. I thought that I liked the final version better but I have had my ups and downs with it. Thanks for your comments, appreciate it. Rock on, Donna #3885

Hi Donna, I like the first and second shot, what lens did you use? You need to come back to NY, theres plenty of subjects waitting for you to shoot.Don't worry, we will make sure you are safe. #3889

hi Ray, I used the same lens. Ya know, NY is cool and filled with it's own little world of photo OPS. I guess that you are right and I will have to just go. You can't live life being afraid of what MAY happen. thanks! #3891

Hi Donna,
Just wanted to put in my two cents worth: I like the cropped version because it gives an up close and personal feeling, plus the details show up a little better. #3894

thanks Jeff, It's the one that I chose for my site for those reasons alone. #3896
