I grabbed this shot of my grandson during an outting and really like it. I'm looking for an detached opinion.

He is a cutie! I would like it if his eyes were more focused.

Nice ...he is cute and looks happy...may be a tad dark but it was in a dark playhouse.

Thanks,yeah, I think I may have caught his far eye

Thanks Mully! That's what I needed. A fresh eye! How's this? I brighten him up and increased the contrast a tad...

Thanks everyone for the help and complements. I wish he wasn't wearing those beads, but he was goofing off with his sister and she put them on him. At the time, I didn't give it any thought. Camouflage and beads...Interesting combination :er:

I agree, the lightening up did the trick.

The lighter one is much better. How did you get him to sit still? At that age they are usually jumping instead of walking or sitting.

I just got lucky. This was completely a candid. The kids were playing hard and Tommy ran in the play house to "hide" from his sister. I just stuck my head in the window and grabbed the shot. I know the focus isn't perfect, but I was glad I got it as close as I did because it was litterly a second after he saw me, he was back on the move.
