I love the color and lighting of this shot. The leaves are just as interesting as the "sun-bather" :-) Very nice shot!

Ernest what a beauty, the exposure and rich saturated color is great. But I've just noticed that you have a new toy....! that is the reason of course :))

@Observing: Thanks, Mike... Yeah I intercepted my Christmas/Birthday present in order to "check it out." Had my dear wife asked me about this purchase I would have nixed it because of budget considerations... I'm glad she didn't ask. Beyond the automatic settings lies a steep learning curve.. but right up my alley. It will be duly re-boxed and unwrapped on Christmas day and I'll certainly be smiling.

The sort of shot that really makes you want to look. Love the depth of this, the shot is perfect in my eyes.

@Richard_Irwin: Thanks very much. I hope that I can make this sort of photo become normal rather than accidental.
