“She was a girl with a mountain to climb.”

― Markus Zusak, The Book Thief

I've been editing this shot, taken in November at San Xavier del Bac near Tucson, Arizona. I wish I could go back and reshoot it! I'd have used a longer lens (and one with no dust specks!) and not had to crop it so much. But of course if I went back, she wouldn't be there. I think there's a lesson there....

Thanks for your comments and favs on my lotus flower. It means a lot to me, especially on those days like today when nothing inspires me!

Very cool shot and processing.

I think it is fine just as it is, and perfect with that quotation.

Very nicely done. Good choice of b&w, it adds to the impact. Love the quote, too!
