Hi Tammy, thanks for the nice feedback! The clouds were pretty thick, and I had just about given up getting a decent shot on this cold winter afternoon. When the sun broke through briefly, I was glad that I had waited a bit longer. #5249086

Cheryl,

The lighting in the photo just couldn't be better - along with the dramatic clouds and a great subject, it makes for a beautiful shot!! #5574783

Hi Becky - thanks for your comments! We were in Jim Zuckerman's BP course together about a year ago, and I remember how impressed I was with your images each week. Since then, I have enjoyed seeing your new work pop up as Editor's Picks and Contest finalists/winners. You just keep getting better and continue to inspire me to do so as well. Best wishes and happy shooting, Cheryl #5577230

Yes, I remember you from the class and thank you for the kind words. You have also continued to improve and I think it is very exciting.

You live in a beautiful part of the U.S. - my boys and I spent the summer along the Eastern Coast of New England and Canada and loved it. You are very lucky to be near such photographic scenery, as in this photo.

Take care... #5577414
