The Glance

Sometimes the clicking of the shutter can attract some attention, but hopefully make for an interesting shot.

Nice crisp shot - it's a shame the rocks in the background provide such a distraction. Have you tried cloning them out?

I take it you mean level with the young ladies head Matt, it
looks like some kind of meditation place going by the raking of the pebbles. Would be a bit difficult to replicate round the rocks. Now watch someone do it. LOL.

More Info

LittleBro is correct, this is Ryoan-ji Zen Garden in Kyoto, which is a famous Zen garden. I do not want to eliminate it. It is part of the story. Basically, I was shooting away and I probably interrupted this ladies' enjoying the garden. So she looked around and gave me the glance. I do see Matt's point, however, that the rocks could be seen as a bit distracting. If I had shot it from a different position it may have been better, but it is what it is, and I would't change it. Thanks for the comments.
