Personally I think the color, the saturation and the composition here all look quite wonderful (maybe a tich hot on the yellows, but I'm good with it). My only real negative comment is simply the expression on the child's face. That's such a cute little face there and considering he's playing with his Tonka truck...it would have been nice to see him smile. I think if the child had of been smiling, this shot would have been simply excellent.

Just my $.02 worth,
Jim

yes, I know the face is soft, the thing is that I used the center point to focus then recomposed. Kid won't stay still a second.

The smile, yes, its not there lol but he was watching sesame street so, he was in lala land.

thanks for the coments tho, I wasd only looking for input on things like wb, saturation, temp and those sort of things.

thanks guys

20D: If you switch your camera to Custom Function 13-1 to put point selection on the Multicontroller (Joystick) & use AI Servo. it becomes a lot easier. It only takes a fraction of a second to set the point you need.

thanks for the tip.

I do have the function on and I am able to use all the points with the stick. I don't move it around that much because I do miss focus a lot with those points since they are not that accurate.

I guess this is not the best example since I missed focus lol

;) I'd expect that they would be more accurate than recomposing with a moving child.
