Just a shot of what he likes to do best.

I know the foreground is a bit cluttered. However, I hope it emphasizes that Gong Gong is focused on Jessica and nothing else.

    Wow! The emotion in this is just unbeatable! I think this would pop even more in B&W....

    Great shot!

    Love it Brian iloveyou.gif

    15524779-Ti.gif It would look good in B&W.

    My only feedback would be that, using a wider aperture would have really softened that BG and isolated Gong Gong and his little jewel :D




    Good work,

    Thanks for your comments
    At the time I was concentrating on having a narrow enough aperture to get people and Jessica in focus. AFter the fact I saw this.

    I have taken your advice and tried a B&W.

    I also noticed the B&W allowed me to easily edit out the big white hat in the background.

    Definitely love the B&W one! And yes- once you get rid of the white hat it makes it so much better! It seems less cluttered this way!
