Very interesting thread.

Rodney, you are obviously an expert.

I'm very impressed with what you did with the photo.

I hope I can achieve that one day.

I'm in the learning phase.

Hi Mikevet,

Sorry you do not have original for you pic.

Your photo has further inspired me to come up with this take on your photo.

Please Let me know what you think...:-)

If you are going to get fancy and create distracting borders for your images, then you should consider a mat or buffer between the image and the distracting elements to pull the viewer into the image rather than out to it's edges. Here is a sample of what I mean.

Welcome to the forum, Mr Peabody!

I'm no expert, but I do have a good understanding of how light affects a scene. Once you understand the main ingredient(light) you can take better pictures and easily enhance them.
