my son

what do you think of this unposed picture ?

i think it's absolutely gorgeous. i see candles and cake and assume it's a birthday for the kid he comes across as very shy here. but a real lovely shot. minor gripe would be that i wish you had panned a tiny little bit lower to include his elbow.. excellent candid.

With a smile like that in your home you are a lucky and blessed person.

 

To the image...would like to have seen all the elbow. Good shot...;)....J

Realy a good compition and a perfect B-W shot. Well captured!

very much for your comments

very touching

thanks for the remark on the elbow --> I had not noticed myself until you told me

 

You are right on the spot balaji, he is very shy and it was his birthday. He was smiling because he was watching his small brother getting crazy at the sight of the candles

Nice pose, well composed and I love the B&W.

A very fine shot that you will continue to treasure.

Superbe photo, c'est justement parce qu'elle n'est pas posee, qu'elle est si interessante.

Looking away from the glitter, interesting.

Lovely shot. A moment well worth capturing and very nicely captured. I just find the bokeh too harsh.

great

I really like this shot.

Every time I see an interesting B&W shot I discover it is a film shot, not a digital one ... maybe I'm wrong, but I think films are still better than digital for this kind of images.

I'm a bit surprised by your remark on bokeh: I like very much the bokeh of this lens, but maybe your impression is due to heavy jpeg compression ...

I'm referring to the three bright circles on the upper right part. It may indeed be because of the digital compression; you have the print and you can tell :)

Hi, these are reflections from the Christmas tree ...

This is a very lovely picture.... I love it very much!
