And yes it was a very bad pun... (anytime you need a prop to make a pun noticeable it's very bad).

Freudian slip? Or did you do it on purpose (the spelling of aspect, that is)?
Technically this
is one of the
best efforts I've seen you produce, the scan has lots of shadow detail,
though the dog
is a bit too dark
It was an overcast day - and the print does have a bit of shadow detail on the dog that the web image doesn't.
, I don't immediately notice any blown highlights,
except in the notice the
subject is reading.
Yeah, it's too bad that one can't see what the notice says, or at least see that there are words on it, even if not legible.
Still I think I've seen better compositions from
you.
No doubt! <vbg>
Still if you insist on
posting properly exposed sharp images I'll have a hard time recognizing
your work.
Actually, I was disappointed on how soft it was - I was zone focusing
at the time, which is what I usually do when walking, then once I've
gotten one quick shot (if need be) I open up the aperture and focus. However, in this case, I only took the one shot. On the print, she's
soft, and the bra shop is sharper. The softness doesn't bother me
much, though, since I caught the moment that I more or less wanted to,
but I do wish I'd have taken more shots of that scene.
Thanks for your thoughts, Peter, they're much appreciated.
cheers, frank
