 My son will at twelve years old. We had a fun time shooting this challenge all throughout the pin shop factory, the site of many of my entries.

I thought the lighting was pretty nice, and the soft feel looked like a text-book style recreation of a masters(Rembrandt or Hals) portrait or sketch. My sons hair made him look like a Flemish youth, perhaps.

The background was an issue, on an initial processing, it was all black. So I lightened it up, and I like the geometry, but I wish the no smoking was completely in the crop...

What?!? This was in my top two. Sorry I did not comment earlier, and surprised this did not finish higher. First of all, I love the portrait pose and lighting. And, I thought the lollipop added a nice playful feel to it. It's a winner with me.
