 Only expert aspect of this is using Portrait Professional to somewhat morph the man's expression. The rest of it is Viveza and Simplify, also with some masked curves layers in multiply and screen modes.

Such a sweet image, Bear. But the way he's holding him makes me think the baby just left a present in his diaper :-)

Pulled an 8 from me in a very tough challenge. I love the dubious expression you got from the child.

Great finish, Bear. I gave it a 7. A little too much on the digital art side for me. :P

I like the vignette and heavy shadows and contrast. It gives it a very "real" feeling.

This is really great, but I do wish the son was smiling like the Father and then it would've been real special. I realise you probably were at it for a while, I know it's hard working with little ones.
