Great top-10 finish bro! Another fine shot to add to your already impressive portfolio. Keep it up. But I DID beat ya this time... hee hee. More dumb luck than skill...
I think I have officially hung out at DPC for too long, cause I know who's who in the Kid pics. Very well done. I especially liked the version of this with the Santa hat, and even wanted to copy the idea, but never got around to it over the holidays. Baby potraits don't get much better than this one. Cheers
Nice, I like it. One thing though, at least on my computer screen, the dark portion of the hair (towards the back) makes it look like he's wearing a little yarmulka (sp?). The skintones and the eyes are really good. I'm so glad you didn't use the "glow" effect that is so common now, together with the "plastified" skin - it's much better this way.
Great Portrait of a young Mr. Doucette if I'm not mistaken. fabu lighting dude. and the kid's WAY better looking than his papa. That's a pic for your wall - awesome. 9 P-ness
What an adorable baby....this must be Jacko's shot I'm guessing, they grow sooo quickly don't they? love the black and white and the white background, it gives such a feeling of youth and innocense. 10
Jacko? What a cute kid and a great photo! Love the choice of black and white... andd the white background is nice... I'm thinking maybe of having this cropped so that Samuel fills the frame leaving less white and more baby...
If I were this kid I would be so incredibly happy with this photo when I was a bit older. An excellent portrait, great pose, good lighting, good contrast, good b&w toning, nice background, good use of space, good angle. In my opinion the best photo of this challenge.
There's a pretty baby! Love the B&W treatment. The skin tone is perfect. The only recommendation is to modify lighting to get rid of head and ear shadws cast on neck and backdrop.
Well, I wonder who this little cutie is? ;-) Looks awesome in b/w. He is the cutest baby boy. I am glad to know that I will watch this little one grow up. Maybe our children will play together some day.
