I am very pleased with this shot.
check out Member "bboehm" post he cropped my image
But I would like to know what you think. So comments appreciated.

Canon EOS 40D + canon 24-105L

The picture is unbelievably crisp through the whole range, good color and tonal values, but I think there is a little to much to the picture, the little girl gets lost in it.

Thanks for the comment isophotostudio,

Please feel free to alter the image to what you would think it should be.

actually looks like the kid is out of focus a tad.

Whenever I leave open space in a picture, I try to leave the open space on the side that the person or object is either facing or moving towards. If you leave all the open space behind them, it feels a bit un-natural like they have nowhere to go. Given that you really don't have much room at all on her "forward" side, there's really not much you can do other than to crop it down so that there's at least an even amount of room on both sides of her. I agree that there's way too much open space in the picture and she does get lost in it.

Thanks for the advice bboehm,

At least i now have a Rough Idea on how to take a image with the same amount of space.

And do you think the image is a tad out of focus has what saqib said in his post.
