Response to Big mums...

First, I want to say thanks to all who responded to what was actually little more than a snapshot. I was a bit hesitant about posting for that reason, and also since the taller girl is the daughter of a friend of mine who asked me to photograph this occasion. However, I was hoping for candid responses, and I think I got them. In response to Colin, and anyone else who is curious, the girl who won is pictured here, on the right.

I do have some confessions to make, though. I can't really take credit for the light, but it was indeed wonderful that evening. And I can't really take credit for intentionally aligning the background; it just worked out that way. Incidentally, those are trees, not mountains in the background. Tom, please don't take any offense but I did get a chuckle out of your response, but only because the landscape around where I live looks like this:

Once again, thanks to all who responded.
