..but instead, he's blowin' bubbles! good thing it was just practice :lol3

today, i shot this boy and his brother, the father engaged me to make a set of each, so that they could put some posters up in the boys' bedrooms. so, it was soccer and fall-baseball for each kid today :uhoh

click on the pic for the exif. shooting conditions: strong mid-day sunshine (about 1330 hrs) ... shot in raw, converted in ps cs2. basic curves adjustment, and done....this image has not been sharpened. shot with canon 200 f/2.8L.

    It's a nice portrait Andy, but what bothers me a bit is the bright face, and the dark deeper lying eyes, caused by the strong midday light. With this picture it's hard to look into those eyes, and for such a headshot, that's something I'd like to be able to. I love the angle and the bubble though.
    enjoy being here while getting there

    The Dan Margulis reading group has created a monster. Jeez, I might even be out of a job soon.
