I was siting in our room thinking what a great trip it was, and this shot was right in front of me. Was it me and the time, or does this say a lot? I cropped it from the Previous photo.

I think you could have cropped a fraction of the bottom edge out though. There are no rules for good photographs, there are only good photographs. ~Ansel Adams

Thanks to both of you. This is what I was hoping for in this forum. Being new to photography, I've learned so much by reading other posts. Yes, I can see now where I could trim off the bottom. That's a great idea of two shots (one out and one in) and blending. I'm going to try that technique on another shot. Thanks. Now, I just point and click with the "green setting" and later justify the deficiencies by saying something like, "The over-brightness on the outside is saying 'You need to bring those sunglasses if you get up off that couch and come out here for anogther Red Stripe.'"
