Well, I've been following your photographic growth since your early days here on the hog, and I must say you have learned a lot and gotten much better. Sorry to say, though, this isn't one of your better efforts, even though you admit that your playing around with Photoshop, it seems that you got a little lazy with this one in regards to your craftsmanship. I'm being frank because I know you appreciate bluntness, and honesty, and you're no stranger to dishing it out yourself. But here are the two problems I see with this photo, the tornado that you imported just looks wrong, it looks more like a curved metal rod than a tornado, you can do better. The 2nd issue I have is where you composited the tornado in under her arm, if you don't enlarge the photo it looks like there's a chunk of skin missing under the arm, or the underarm curve looks wrong, or something.

Your contribution to the Hog are amazing with now over 44,000 posts, your sense of humor is always good natured, and your comments usually hit the bullseye.

Thanks, Jon. Yeah, I should have done a little more research for a better tornado background pic. Actually, I have a bunch that should head into the trash bin because they never did fit in anything I tried. I do admit that I also went a little too quick with this one in post. It was kind of a spur of the moment thing anyway. I do have a rather nice photo of her in full length. It is just a snap shot though. Truthfully, it was very windy on this day. As always, I appreciate the criticism from you. It helps.

Oh, and here is another pic from this day showing just how windy it was. What you don't see is a large hedgerow behind her that was actually blocking much of the wind.

See the hair flying over her left shoulder? Yep, very windy.
