This is a great pose, and am sure you would have preferred his eyes open, yes, but such is real life.
A 10% bump in brightness & contrast adds a lot to this.

I love this shot.Love his freckles,and how,with the shot close up,you focus on his eyes,nose and mouth. Great work.Eyes closed works fine,we dont always smile with eyes open.

I'm not much for receiving or giving comments, but since Candids are
near and dear to my heart, I have decided to give comment on every entry
in this challenge.

Not one of my top pics. It's cropped too tight for me, and is a nice portrait, and I do like the tones, but its a bit too ordinary for me as a candid.

Great candid! Nice expression, good composition, and the fact that it is black and white made it even more charming :)

Very nice.. the crop is just right, too. Seems like full color would take away from this. Definitely a top entry, imo. :)
