Shot in Zephyrhills in a friend's back yard, 2 hours from Tampa, Florida. Shot with Canon D60, Canon Lens 75-300 IS USM, F7.1@ 1/1600, ISO:200, E.C. -0.7

I have applied USM as per suggestions - I wonder if it is any better that way?

I really like the composition and the background hues. It appears as though the image could use a little more USM overall.

Great shot and what a great background. As Heather said a little USM would help.
Remember for web sized images USM settings of 100, 0.2, 0 applies 2-5 times works wonders.

thanks for the tip - I will try that - can I replace an image that I posted? if not, can I post repost of ameliorated version?

Very nice image -- the eyes look like jewels! The background colors really enhance the rest of the image.
