Thanks Wendy. It's always good to see one of your photos getting the attention it deserves.
This was one of those low light, not quite sharp enough photos that had potential but needed rescue. I just love this kid's expression and energy and didn't want to dump it because of its technical problems. I found that going after it agressively in Painter made the difference. And, I bought myself a better flash ;o) #2718016
