 Swings are one of those action toys we have all used through out time so I added a sepia tone to the image and like the way it takes us back in time, hope you enjoy it.

Thank you I really appreciate that, I knew a kid on a swing would not be a wow type action shot so I am pretty content with the results and have a shot of my grandson that I will always cherish.

whoa cool, way to get the focus perfect and have these DoF effects. I think this shot may have been harder to pull off than people think

Lovely shot. My eyes are drawn to his feet though but I'm not sure how else you could have framed it to avoid that.

A really nice photo. Love the angle and perspective. Looks quite oversharpened to my eye though.. Sharpening halos around the head, and the left shoe just looks strange to me. Who cares.. You still get a 7.

Damn this is a great photo. I was prepping up to be disappointed after I saw the title, expecting another "straight-on" shot, but this is great. Print it out big and stick it on a wall somewhere.
