No, I didn't make him cry. A bad lighting situation, so I leaned on my sexy lens to make it happen. Of course, this photo is going to get creamed but I think it is quite emotional.
I converted to b/w and then turned down the opacity to let some color through. I used brightness/contrast to up the contrast.

People, people! He was crying about having to go or having to stay or what he was going to wear. Something along those lines.

I think you got the focus spot-on here. Makes me want to bawl right along with him. :) And as for soft focus, did you ever try to focus your eyes when you're weeping? Do things look pin-sharp then? You have helped us see through his eyes.
This reminds me of a long lost memory, but captured on film. Wow!
Absolutely stunning, sweet, emotional and full of wonder. So if it wasn't you... exactly what made him cry? NOT the sexy lens, I hope.
Oh I did like this one and I thought the face was a scream. ONLY because when my kids make poo faces like this, it makes me laugh. I'm mean, what can I say. Adorable photo and I love the glints of light in his eyes.
