Comment from Shellrl
I love this picture. It's slightly dark, but the composition makes up for it. I love the pose and the beautiful tree trunks. The colors all blend nicely as well. Great job!

Comment from Casteel
You seem to have alot of photos in the mid day sun... in this case again I would have liked to see a flash used to make the foreground the brighter area... the image is very good.. maybe keep the foot in the image would complete it... a great job on this. :)

You better do what you mamma says. You sure she'll like the Jack Daniel's top? I like the relaxed pose and the background you chose. There is good lighting and clear details of your face. No doo rag good for mom. She'll be proud to show you a round.

Very nice indeed. Do you think that the baptists will object to that "jack" tee shirt? I kinda like Makers Mark & water better though.

My Grandpa, southern baptist, got in lots of trouble with him, to him I was just a renegade, Old B missed out on some great times, like dancin'! Thank you so much Gentle!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No Jack, more ways than one with 'The Mama'!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Comment from Papa
LowRider, I'm hoping this won't effect your rating, but, although the composition and pose in this image are very good, the exposure, it seems to me if off and the image is not as sharp as it might be. One can't see enough of your beautiful face because of the shadow and the glasses, and the lettering on your top is a bit blurred, and I haven't had even one shot!
Peace, Papa

You'd better drop the Jack Daniels shirt for a more conservative one next time my dear :) Loved the conversation & great pic of you!

Comment from Clyde B.
This is a good shot Low, what a wonderful tree you found here. I think you did quite well getting into the picture on this one. I do like that tree. I can't make out the leaves to tell what kind it is. I like the four splits on this tree. Great job!!!!
