http://shyrellmelara.tripod.com/id15.html Note the young boy in the red shorts. Half press. Got this after several failed shots of his brother jumping off the other side of the deck. Only got water splash. I know these pictures may not be anything special, but I would like some helpful suggestions, all sorts. I'm having a gallery showing next month and am putting together a series of floral shots. I have re-sized the pictures on this page so they will come in faster. Sorry for any inconvenience the first time around. Thanks!
