I don't post very often, so I thought I's throw a few out there for everyone to look at. Please feel free to comment. The lighting in the back is all blown out but I liked this picture anyway. After all, the subject is perfect! :D

Hi, maybe a bit of burnin to darken the background and then a bit of dodge to bring her out as the center of attention.

I have no advice because I'm too new at this myself, but I must comment on her expression: she's lovely to look at, and you caught a sweet half-smile. I like the way she seems dreamy while she's touching the horse.

Man what a great shot, too bad you didnt use a lens with more bokeh! PSCS can fix that. Took 3 minutes and did this. Would come out much nicer with more time and my wacom tablet. Dont let my changes take away form the fac tthat this pic is a definate keeper!!!!!
