The semicircle of reflection is just great. Yes, I'd prefer the girl not being there too, but the reflection is so strong it keeps drawing my eyes away from her. If she weren't wearing such a light/bright color she'd be much more hidden. Once I had hubby's sister take a snapshot of us and the kids. We were in a public place and there was a guy standing with his back to the camera, right next to and slightly behind us. He was wearing a bright red jacket and it just ruined the shot. Being that we have no family shots (I dont' know why but I must make an effort at more) I went into salvage mode. I turned his coat a nice dull brown. Voila!-Picture saved! Maybe you want to give it a shot. Not that this one is ruined, just that it could go up a notch or two. Excellent capture! ~ Lonnit
Great shot, Tom! Wish the little girl wasn't there... I kind of like things simple in my images :-) Great reflection angle. Mark J

Great perspective and creative use of the reflecting surface of the slide! I've tried to take pictures of my son on the slide many times. None of them are as good as this one! --Olaf
