nice shot , they make great subjects with their vivid blues, I think half a step to the right to line up with the subject better and I also suggest using your longest focal length with damsels, makes lining up on them easier as angular errors are multiplied as you get closer in to the subject.

Hi

A lovely image that has good backdrop to subject effects - like Chris ideally I would have prefer the subject more aligned to the film plane


All the best
Matthew

I asked him/her to hold still while I moved, but he wouldn't comply. :-)
