I took this 4 hours ago at the Royal Melbourne Show with the Fuji S1 Pro. Forgot to bring the 800 ISO back to the camera's minimum of 320 after using the S1 indoors, but no real harm done. I've cloned out a black blob at the top RH corner and a piece of a child's head two-thirds of the way along the bottom edge, and applied some Unsharp Mask to the image.

I'm really happy with it, but would welcome any other suggestions for improving this image.

Mate, I really like it. Great skin tones and colour levels, and sharp as a tack. It's got a nice surreal quality to it? Do you know the girl in the image?

Great shot!

Thanks, Alan. The skin tones and nice blue sky are courtesy of Mr Fuji.

I don't know who the girl is; a pity, as I'd gladly give her a print for being such a good subject!
