Thanks Jon. I do wish I had not cropped out her flowing hair on the right. That would have made this photo it even better for me. However, I hope that the look on her face and her connection would draw the viewer in and make the missing hair not quite as relevant. Thanks for you thoughts. As always I appreciate them.
