A really wonderful capture Lee. Really nice touch with the darkening of the edges.

this is my favourite of your three. very moody and vignetting helps the mood too. i like that her left leg is a little crooked, which gives shot a natural feel (instead of a posed look). nice entry, Lee. -Abstract

Thanks Nugar and Yvonne.

Nugar, Good to hear from you again. All effects were done if PSE. The kit lens is a good work horse. I use it alot.

Also, the far away ship(?) suggests what the girl might be thinking and the feet's position suggest innocence. This is a really good photo!

Very, very interesting image, Lee. The centering of the subject works very well here. I don't know if any one else noticed, but the rails are located on the thirds lines, cool detail. I also like the wide angle distortion provided by the kit lens (which I find using more and more these days, specially at small apertures) and the vignetting. Did you add it using Camera Raw?

I really, really like this image.

Also the wide type of crop reinforces the calm as well. Excellent Lee.

I like the symmetry of the dock, great color as well.
