Ah, the old "don't let daddy take my picture" game....I caught this little dude ducking into a hollow Banyan tree. Not the sharpest photograph I guess...but I like it...it may be time for a belt though. :rolleyes:

It's what candids are all about. Capturing the expression without the composition or background awareness. Superb in my opinion.

I like the capture too. Try cropping some of the tree off (far left side) and see what you think. The DOF (blur) of the tree is a bit strong.

Nice colors and cute expression.

Thank you all so much. :) I sincerely appreciate your taking the time to C&C.

The shot was taken at sunset and I used just a smidgen of Fred Miranda's Velvia Vision plug-in. I'm still chuckling about the underwear.

Here is a crop for you:

Looks like the cropping helped a bit (IMO).

It's always hard to get them little ones stop and pose :)
