 An ideal observation framed appropriately. Mr. Foothead(real name!) after a BBQ at our flat.

Real tribute to the LX1's Image stabilisation.

Spot meter and spot focus. Natural lighting. Low image processing in camera. Shapened, cropped and contrast adjusted.

Yes there is a car and couch in the background. This was not a set up. This documents the mood as it was. Foothead is usually bare footed so I exploited the opportunity.
I am glad this was well received for some reason.
My first 6!

Fantastic point of view. Crop and DOF is spot on. Only thing is the lounge or whatever on the left would be better if it wasn't there. Still a great shot.

Wow! Certainly has impact however on further inspection I become confused by the background... do I see a couch car and trees? Doesnt seem to fit and I find it a bit distracting. Would have been cute sitting on a tree stump or up on a branch or something.

Happy feet! I connect with that at a personal level. The smile makes it look real. The color choice is right too.
