My photography professor loved this composition, but did not like the technical problems with the lighting.  Well in the last year I have learned a lot about editing raw files, and I think it shows.  Here is what the picture looked like the first time I printed it, when did not know much about editing raw files.

Carols hair and the sky were blow out in the original exposure

If I could do this shot all over again I would underexpose for the background and use a flash to light up the foreground.  Thanks to Patrick Penoyer for teaching me how to do that during a protest in Oly.  And thanks to Clinton for give me some tips on editing raw files.  I love it when I find people who share their knowledge simply for the joy of giving and teaching.
