 My son, Simon, at the Nedlands skate park. This will probably get hammered as it's not a cutesy pic of a younger child with a teddy etc, but what the hell. Let's hope it cracks a score of 5.

Basic editing only. Converted from RAW with minor adjustments to brightness, contrast and saturation. Resized, added border, USM, saved as JPEG.

---------------------------

My first entry with the 70-200 F/2.8. I'm lovin' this lens.

Cool action shot. I notice the Apple logo, is this the rumored iSkoot?
