January 4, 2008

Another shot of DS-caught him reading a book, he'd put the hat (my favorite) on himself at some point during playtime. I had to sneak this shot, or else I swear he would have taken it off the instant he saw my camera. Had to convert because of the color cast his yellow walls were creating. Still not sure I like this one, my focus fell off before it reached the middle of his hat above his eyes, and nothing I do fixes it. But, it fits the theme, so I'm posting it anyway. I love his lashes in it, if nothing else.

Now, the real question-WHY won't he wear the hat for me??

85mm. ss 1/160, f/2.2, ISO 800.

I really like the focus actually. His eyelashes really do stand out. Isn't it great when you catch them with those contemplative expressions. Gotta get em fast!

Really cool! I don't mind the focus the way it is, at all. I think it adds to the allure of it. Nice job of capturing it - I know how hard that is!

Love the conversion on this. His lashes should be illegal!

Kristi said...

Because they want to drive us crazy at all costs!!! I love the little eye peeking out...I'm kinda partial to shots like that! :) Love his lashes too!!

LOVE that hat! Too cute!!! Our color schemes on our blogs are similar...and I just noticed my wording about the type of hat for today is similar to yours from yesterday. LOL Sorry!

LOVE this pic though....look at those lashes!

Lovin' this shot, even with the focus where it is. It looks purposeful, it makes it more of an "any" boy instead of a portrait, KWIM? Way cute picture.

Kristen said...

Oh, this is just wonderful! You've captured a really great moment! I'd have to frame this one if I were you!

That is one incredibly sweet photo and I would not have guessed the focus fell on the hat. It looks great!

Anita said...

LASHES galore!! Nice shot!!

Great sneak attack. I really like your conversion here.

Love the angle it was taken at. The hat is what my kids would refer to as "sick". They like skater hats.

robin said...

I like that he is looking down and not directly into the camera. You may have to resort to bribery so he'll keep the hat on!

Tori said...

I love this! He is adorable and he has some amazing eyelashes! Love your banner, too!

He has great eyelashes! So thick!! Love your b&w here. Very powerful and edgy.

I love the dashing way he arranged his hat, and that you captured it! I have to remember that it IS ok to shoot at ISO 800.

Deb said...

Personally I like the focus. Looks sharp around the eyelashes and that's right where my eye went when I looked at the picture. I think the b/w conversion really works for this shot as well.

Danielle said...

those lashes love them. And I like your conversion as well

Melissa said...

Love it! He is so adorable and the conversion is great.

Val said...

I think this looks GREAT! And the simple answer to your question of why he won't wear the hat for you is: Because you want him to! :-)

Reds said...

Mandy said...

Look at those lashes! Stunning!

Melissa said...

Becky said...

Very sweet photo. I love that hat!

bvb said...

I love the conversion and those eyelashes.

emilyc said...

OH MY GOSH -- I would kill for a photo like that of my son (especially if I could take it). Isn't it amazing what you are wondering if you even like is something that the next person in line is absolutely in love with! Your conversion looks amazing.

Tasha said...
