 My brother and his son having fun.

Not many editing steps. Simple things, for a simple "love scene".

blur background a bit more
clone details
brightness/contrast
hue/sat
levels
resize for Web

I think this may not get much attention (or many high votes) because it's not a nature scene, which are more appreciated in free studies and "best ofs", and it's not a high-end professional-looking portrait.

It's simply a candid photo of a happy and fun moment and I like it best of all for 2008. Regardless of the votes it will receive. :)

What a fun slice of life! Perhaps a snapshot, but a really great one that should be hanging on your wall.

An fun and honest candid. Great moment for sure. (For kicks, try rotating it clockwise 90 desgrees. It's an interesting orientation as well.)
