Ken, like the pose, colors and details. IMHO the partial reflection makes this image stand out. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Ken,

Very nice light resulting in very pleasing (yet natural-looking) colours. For my taste the image is cropped and/or framed just a little tight, especially along the bottom. But that's clearly a personal preference issue.

Thanks for your comments.
Brad ,
The framing took into account an obstruction at the bottom, hence the tightness in that area
