And Scaba, thanks for the comment. Yes you were right about the cryptic title (I'm just so obvious at times ...) I will try not to rush the shots so much in future! (I was just excited to try out my new 12-24 sigma you see :-)
Ga.
Do you mean, the future is the D3? I like the idea of the shot and I think it deserves the attention. To me it seems to be that the backround -which is, no doubts, an important element in the shot- is too complex: includes the sky, grass, city, sea. Not sure which of them you are facing. To make the scene more sureal, I would crop just above the shoulders but include the hands in whole, perhapst holding something that connets the figure to the background. Cheers, MCsaba
