Blue-eyed Drooler

Our Blue-eyed drooler is growing up! Sporting his new hair-cut. Cousin Ethan calls this a "moo-hawk" :)

Comments & critiques always appreciated. Thanks.

I have to tell you your work has improved to a whole new level. What you done with lighting amazes me. The Blue-eyed Drooler is cute.

Thanks Howard- He's a hand full. He just started walking last week, at only 10 months! He acts & looks like he's 12 months old. He still has only 4 teeth, but he eats everything!

I already see character and personality in that face.

 

Teach him some moral toughness equal to your own, Nana.

Incredible detail and sharpness in the eyes along with good lighting.

Jayme, I really like this portrait. . . the lighting is superb. . . (I was surprised to see that it was natural lighting). . . great hairdo. . thanks for sharing. .

Amazing detail and smoothness at ISO-1600! I like the side lighting and composition. ^_^

Wonderful as always. Because it is traditional for me to offer a brutal critique... As an ex-portrait photographer I would remove the freckles on the nose. As a grandparent... I would say that's the best part. As a compromise, take out the dust spot on his shirt. {:],

Thanks all-

Wilson- Neat Image is amazing!

Larry- Dust? :) you mean Lint? :) I can do that! I find myself so engrossed with those eyes, I miss the small linty things :) He's such a little character, personality plus. Demanding, loving, & mischievious all roled into a very large package!

 

It's so funny, he is really not that fond of his NaNa. He loves is Grandpa, but NaNa is about the only one that says "No!" & means "No!". He looks at me and runs the other direction! :) But when I say "No", he does listen! Mean Ole NaNa! :)

Jayme, splendid portrait. I like the skin tones and colours and the eyes really come out. Personally it's a little tight at the bottom with respect to the chin. However, that tends to be my pet peeve as a general rule, I tend to like it less tight on the lower portions of the face than the top of the head.

Hi Jayme, I guess we both come a long way in PN. The time you conciously took to improve your portraits are are paying dividends now.

 

I'm sure you're glad to be free to enjoy your passion and I wish you all the best in your new venture.

Great lighting and skin tones. And, as usual, great rendering of the eyes.

Jayme,what a beautiful portrait! Reminds me of "childhood shows the man, as morning shows the day".You have reasons to be proud of him. Love from India.

Very lovely child portrait, dark background really works here. First of all sorry about your arm and best wishes for the speedy recovery. I can see you have such a passion about photography, great collection of images. Thanks again for your comments and suggestions.
