Can others edit my Photos
Photos OK to edit
I tried to keep the focus on the eyes and recompose the shot, but he moves around so much it's not easy. Also I bounced the flash off the ceiling, but I see there is still a little shadow.

Let me know if good or bad, or what you would do different.

Thanks

I like it. It would be better if he was a little more centered. Also I would brighten the picture a tad, add some contrast, and change the white balance.

I'd either center him, or put him on the right of the frame instead of the left. Any time a subject is angled, I always make sure that in the picture, it's angled towards the center of the photo, not outside of it. I'd adjust the white balance a bit too, it looks like he's catching a lot of incandescent light.

I made some very minor adjustments in Photoshop:
- Auto Tone
- Auto Color
- Minor levels adjustment

The colors are much more natural now. Jeans are perhaps a bit too vibrant, but you get the idea.

Yea, I had him centered, but the treadmill was off to his right(picture left) so I cropped it. Maybe I can remove the treadmill or retake the shot after moving the chair a little.

Arcooke, that does look much better, thanks!

Thanks for the comments!
 
The shadow is barely noticeable, so I wouldn't worry about it. Good choice bouncing the flash.

You can still center the image, just crop off the right side with all that empty space, and take a little off the bottom.

Cute kid =)
