Arrey, I don't get the time to come here now I work, but try to have a look as much as I can. I didn't use any flash, and used auto mode because Jenny was in an energetic mood, and ran off soon after I snapped the shot.
James, I agree the light is a little harsh. I think winter sun (being so low) can have that effect.
You started the year in fine fashion.This is a very good photo, perhaps the light is a tad harsh. You worked around the lighting conditions very well. regards, -Jim
