I was hanging out with a close friend of mine and her son, who is about 16mo old. We were at at Tattoo Convention/Reptile Convention (2 buildings, 2 shows, a lot of cool stuff) While we were sitting outside, we were sitting across from a water fountain, and her son was amazed by it. Grabbed this shot.

Gave it a soft focus effect, I really like the way it came out, by my wife and roommate prefer the original.

Any comments/critiques welcome.

Shot with 300D/Tamron 28-105 f4-5.6

My opinion, the first shot is the better.

Nice capture btw.

When you blur pictures, a nice idea is to use the history brush and bring back some parts - lile the eyes and sometimes the lips.

I prefer the look of the soft focus filter, where the entire image is softened, it just doesnt look right to me to have the eyes in focus and everything else not.
