Actually, I think you are correct...I adjusted the exposure a bit and brightened the image...Thank You

With the fishing pole, I actually wanted it to cut across the image to kinda separate the sleeping fisherman from the lake...since he's not really "AT" the lake, but off in his own world at that moment.

No problem, and thank you...I always value your input my friend.

Thanks for you input, but the shot was taken before sunrise...it WAS dark, that would be like saying a night shot is dark...of course it is...it's dark out. Sorry to sound blunt, but, it's just factual. Some shots/subjects will just be inherently darker than others.

Advice heeded and adjusted saturation. Wouldn't want a cold looking newborn! Hope this is better?
