Here's another client of the Life Challenges daycare center. Ron is very eager to please. He kept on looking at my camera - so I asked him if he wanted me to take his picture. He turned around and posed perfectly. It was taken against the light, but due to the f1.8 lens and some crafty PP, it turned out ok.

ETA - I gave Ron a print of this photo. He was so happy! Went around showing it to everyone. I was thrilled that he liked it.

This reminds me that it's ok to approach people and ask to take their picture. I see so many subject and yet can't seem to ask them. Very nice portrait and shooting into the light gives it a different look that works well.

I like this. I like the bright background and the angle of the subject. He looks like a deckhand on a pirate ship. (Striped shirt, bandana, earring(?)).

I like how the light almost gives him an "angel" quality. Sweet.

I bet he loves that picture -- or will when you show it to him. He has a very gentle face. I like what you managed to do with that backlight.

Very nice portrait. He looks very confident and comfortable with having his picture taken. I hope you consider giving him a copy as this really is special. I can't put my finger on it but, something about this shot just warms me.
