It's a Snow Day!

[Bend The Light]

Hi,

I like the picture that follows. I like the sun in the background, I like the snow and the trees, and I like my daughter throwing snowballs.
I'm not sure that it is a "good picture", though. I know that "it's a good picture if i like it" but do you think it's a good picture? From a more detatched point of view?
If so, why? If not, why not?
Thanks in anticipation of your responses.

Thank you very much.

I like it. I thought for a minute, "But wait, where's the snowball?" Then I found it.

Yeah, I know. I'm working on ways to bring out the snowball, but it's not good. She wasn't very good at making them with those gloves on, anyway.

No body can dislike this image, nobody can look detatched at such a cute child

Really loved this image

Nicely done...care to share the method?

Cheers

I increased the exposure .29 on the snowball and reduced clarity a little bit around the snowball maybe 10 pixels out.

Too late now, but next time - you might want to get down a little lower. That would put the snowball above the horizon and let it stand out against the trees.

Cool shot though.

Thanks. Yes, as a spur of the moment, I still like the shot. But as you say, a little forward planning, or at least having this in the back of my mind next time I go for a snowball shot, it will turn out better.

Live n learn.

Thanks all
