iamwoman's post today showing her son turning 5 inspired me to take this shot. While Mason won't be turning 5 for another few weeks, this challenge will be over by then so I thought I'd do it now. :) Here he's standing in front of a portrait I took of him back when he was 3. Lil' buggers growin' up.
And yes, he was a goof back then too.
As far as the details, bounced flash off the ceiling above him. PP included, among other things, adding a little acid and adding a polaroid border. :)
This was one of his first DPC appearances way back in 2004, practically grown up here. :)
What a cute shot! I love how you incorporated his younger portrait in the background & the editing works perfectly. He looks like he's full of spunk, ready to get out & run around!
It's clearly the same young man. Even though its bright because of the flash, the detail is good, and I like that you cropped his head the same as in the wall portrait. Great expression, too.
What is this...acid? And, where does one get some?
Great idea for a composition with the portrait in the background. What a cutie Mason is! Your border gives this an old-fashioned, nostalgic feel. Nice light on him!
