Cute shot. I like the lighting and the boy's expression and arm/head positions. The only thing I'd like to see is the bit of sweet white twinkle in the left eye also in the right. But that would require head-on lighting. Maybe just a touch of fill to do that and also slightly decrease the contrast of the side lighting (which is nice but a tad harsh).

Keith, when you get a chance,perhaps do a replacement upload with a larger jpeg file,this shot is worth a larger image. Yes, the light is a little hot on the lad's left cheek and of course this could be corrected some in your graphics program I have found. I have used black bacgrounds and had the same problem with getting the hair to show a little more outline. Possibly a small old strobe with a slave on the side is your next thing to experiment with. I think it is a fine unfussy and honest representation of the person. (And say, post some of your work with your new digicam. You make such a great case for the G2 Canon I am eager to see what you have done with it cause I want one too.) Thanks for the opportunity to comment. An ardent and faithful Canon FD user myself. And a lover of people pictures. Aloha,GS
