Grrreat thought & placement on the take!! It's just those blown out days really suck for photography as it's kinda hazy, white 'n' blown out...ugh!! I've been there, done that!! At least ya gotta little color poppin', that works nicely!!
I love the colours, they are truly magical, but it's really too bad about the white out in the background.Maybe ya did a bit too much on the Clarify? Not sure, but the white is something to leave far far behind.lol Verena
