Lol, cute pic.  The colors are very vivid and striking.
What's the second rule of composition?

Bret's second rule:

Boobs and Butts do not require any particular framing to be shot-worthy...

I have to agree with ya Mark.  I've seen better looking male
cheerleaders..............a LOT better looking!  I was being a bit too
playful last night.....sorry about that.
Now, if it were Hugh Jackman.........well, THAT'S different!  lol.

       All right, I've been silent for a while, but comes a time...

       We can cope with your enthusing over Bret, for the most part, and
god knows he needs his desperate insecurity boosted.

       But try something like this again, and the pack of us will cause
your ISP to revoke your posting privileges due to inappropriate use
policies.

       Cheerleaders are bumpy, NOT lumpy, and curvy, NOT swishy! Remember
this. Five o'clock shadows are a distinct no-no.

       I'm being nice, this time.

       ;-)

    - Al.

Not fair! Pic was 404 by time I read this thread. No biggie, tho, got to
see our Prez's HS and University cheerleading pix.

And, it's "We gals", Or "they gave us gals a chance to be cheerleaders".

<grin> Classic mistake.
The best example I've ever seen was in an expensive fashion magazine,
where the photographer had obviously gone to a heap of trouble to set
up a tripod on the peak of a ridge to shoot a house on the peak of the
next ridge over. He caught it beautifully lit by the dawn light - too
bad about the enormous shadow of him & his tripod projected clearly
onto one end of the house, & on the ridge under it. It was /just/
soft-edged enough that it wasn't totally obvious at first glance, but
as soon as I noticed the overall shape, it stuck out like dogs balls.

Methinks it was very deliberate.  With film, few would waste the shot,
with digital ... who cares!!

You've got it all wrong, that's "performance photography" where the
photographer makes himself part of the image...

Cheers,
Alan

Well, we all know that Brett is an exhibitionist. ;)

I'm sure that that's the excuse the photographer used.

I was part of the squad during my days of academia.  And I can honestly
say NO thank you.
