Dee Dee,
you misinterpreted my comment. I tend to think it's presumptuous for most of us to give formal critiques of others' images. Your vision is just that -- your vision. If I would photograph a similar situation differently, that doesn't necessarily mean it is any better than the way you did.

There are some very good photographers on this list. But none of them are a better visual artist than you, whether it's in photography, painting or whatever.

I'm more than happy to comment on technical issues but I don't feel qualified to critique your vision. That's just my opinion. Obviously, if folks want critiques they can ask for them. At this point in my life, I have enough confidence to realize that the toughest critic I have is me.

Cheers,

Jim
