VERY NICE....YOU SHOULD BE PROUD, OF YOUR SON AND YOURSELF!

That's a wall hanger for both of you. maybe just a tad overexposed on the ball and pants. Maybe see if there's a bit of tweaking that might make it better for you.

Excellent capture!

Great shot! The rare BOB AND facial expression all in one shot! The dirt and pants look a bit blown out, but that can easily be fixed. I like to use the gradient filter in Lightroom 2.0 and pull it up from the bottom and it does a great job of adjusting something like this while still leaving face and such perfectly exposed.

Cheers!

Amazing, this is a treasure!
Great job.

Also, I'd clone out whatever that bluish thing is in the background where the trees meet the grass (bike?) and crop off a bit of the top dead space

great shot, well done.
I agree with the comments above, a tiny tweak of the exposure (gradient in LR is perfect) will make this a stunning image.
It definately deserves to be printed and put on the wall!

Thanks all! I will definitely try that gradient filter tonight and tweak it!
