Summer in a nutshell...

I can see what people are saying about cropping a little off the top. I agree, mostly, my only reservation being that I like the green.

Definitely don't crop it. It's just right, and a great photo.

Thank you all for the feedback.

This was a completely impromptu shot (my favorite)

We went into a hotel behind the beach we were shooting at and the kids wanted a break I guess...he just lounged and I caught him in that position.

I like the photo un-cropped as well

What were your camera settings, and what kind of editing did you do (if you don't mind sharing)? I love the colors!

Why not?

I would crop from the top and bottom and soften the background at the top.

Wish he'd been barefoot. I think that would have been a nice addition.

I like the shoes, it gives a contrast to the clean, perfect little scene. Like "oohh wouldnt mom be mad to see your shoes on her nice furniture."


Its a perfect in the moment shot

Thank you!!

Bluettu - I don't have the picture on this computer but will check settings for you when I can. In terms of PP'ing .. this picture didn't need much. I created a new layer and added a bit of soft light just to enrich the colors. Then I dodged a TAD under the hat by his eyes.
