About This is a friend and his youngest son.
This little guy is such a rascal. He normally has a huge grin on his face and is a joy to be around.

I just loved this moment...he was fighting for self control...and he won! Papa was very proud of him.

(I toned down the shirt a lot...hope it's not still too blown out.)

This is an award winner, Susie! The expression on the little guy's face, the tears, Dad's presence and the cropping + background are perfect! Plus you couldn't ask for a cuter model - those eyes and cheeks! Amazing capture with perfect lighting and... well... perfect timing!

Okay Susie, enough is enough,
The lengths some people will go to just to get a photograph... I hope you gave him back his ice cream cone after you got the shot. :)

The shot looks great. The black background works well and the shirts look fine to me. Lots of detail in them.

Oh what wonderful emotion you've captured here Susie. When I saw this I almost had tears well up in my own eyes just from seeing the tears in his eyes. I can feel him trying to hold back those tears. It's beautfully composed and the shirts.....look good to me. Great job Susie.

Thank you also for all the support and encouraging words you have left me on your comments to my images.

Cheers - Ann :)
