 Just my little, often seriously amused, boy. I had more canonical, possibly more pleasant shots, at least in terms of post-processing and crop. But I am revising somewhat my approach to my photos and I felt like submitting something so high contrast would have been more interesting, even if ruthless obliteration of detail in both highlights and shadows will put off many people. I was also hoping to create some kind of contrast between subject and approaching man (the blotch on the right corner), but bad timing on my part and post-processing after have fused his shape with the trees.

Outtakes, which would have probably done better scorewise, but still I found more interesting to post the above:

Charming. I do mind though a little bit the washed out right side of the picture although it probably gave you the old school feeling of the dark room photos

Too much white makes it hard to look at. Cute pose.
