that's a nice one Bertl. A bit tight in the frame and the lighting was against you, but you did very well to get them all in a row like that.

What a shame their is not a little more light in the shadows. If you have PS it might be worth adding some fill-light in Raw.

You captured a lovely moment. Well done :smile: :smile: However, I also think you should try to lighten up the shadows a little bit. The picture is certainly worth it.

Personally, I think that the tight framing works well, and the moment is captured superbly. However, I have to agree with other comments about getting some more light into the shadows.
