Okay so I've been editing photos and trying to get over a cold for the last 2 days so I didn't get any shots :-( But I did get my lazy butt out today and get some shots. Here they are.

Those are nice! Here's some cc...if that is okay...pics #2 and #3 look a tad bit underexposed...but that's fixable! And maybe it's just me...but #1 looks kinda out of focus. Maybe you focused on the bag, and wanted the girl reading to bit a touch blurry? I am not sure what affect you wanted...but that's what I saw.

And I am not positive about "cut-off" points when it comes to limbs...but I think the one photo of the lady on the corner...was cut-off at her ankles, and I think that's a no-no. But then again...I submitted a pic of a little girl on the beach, and it was cut-off at her ankles, and they accepted it!!! lol

So who knows?! Just try to be helpful.

Yeah CC is great :-) I looked at a larger version of 1 (the focus point is her hand) and it looks in focus to me. I could be wrong cause my eyes kinda suck but I think it may just be Cafemom upload. It never looks as sharp there as it does on my picture browser. And there's no way I have enough upload space in flickr every month to be able to upload all of my photos :-) I see what you are saying about the ankles. The problem with actually getting her feet is that there was a fence railing in the way so I wouldn't have gotten her feet anyway. I'll make sure to watch out for that next time though. Thanks!
