Mauri,
Thanks for the sweet comments and for checking out my gallery!

Susana,
Thanks for the kind words. It was a beautiful sunny day and I got several great shots. My subject was very pleased with the results. #177210

Ronald,
Thanks for the kind critique. I used PhotoShop to brighten up the overall image as well as increase the blues in the water to help make her face standout more. Then I used a soft blur to hide a few freckles and even the skin tone on her face.

Evy and Roseann,
Thanks so much! I told her that she should be a model.

LOL Ronald! If you are serious I could ask the model to sign a copy...not sure if her boyfriend would approve though (grin). #193755
