I hope this was not marked down because people recognized Aidan. It's a beautiful shot and obviously an unposed moment. Another wonderful shot for the family collection!
You are correct. Maybe that's why I feel dead half the time. I know, I'll go look at my entries score: that will make me laugh! The composition and the conversion look very nice as well as your focus.
Now this little one is no stranger to this site and has garnered his fare share of ribbons for his parents, but this time, if I had to guess as to which one I would go with Mom aimeethetoo and I have to say that this is a fantastic shot as always.
Best of luck :)
MAX!
Sorry about the mix up Tim I meant to put Aimee not Lydia. I hope this removes the confusion I caused in your home :)
I love the shallow DOF. Looks like the processing is a bit clumsy at the top left, but I might be wrong, and it's nit-picking regardless. Well done - 7
This is a lovely shot. Good focus on the eye and some nice tones... I do however feel that the focus and blur on the mouth is too distracting though. I would have cropped just above the eyebrows too.
The emotion shown here is fantastic,love the crop, the weakness (IMHO) is that the DOF is a tad too shallow & the sharpes focus (eye/eyelid) is just not crisp enough. 6
