[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This was a last minute photo, I put my son Billy in the car to take to nursery, it was back in march after a hard frost, the sunlight was fantastic on his face so I just had to run inside the house and get the camera. This image just go'es to show that there is a photo opportunity in almost any situation.

Hope you enjoy.

Saturarion and levels + a little unsharp mask to prepare it all.

Brilliantttttttttttttttttttttttttttt Dean!
This is a wonderful expression of emotions which you just captured. Thanks to the lovely warm light falling in the frame which has made the moment nostalgic along with the fog on the glass.. really very nice!

I cant give points cause my limit is over, so pls dont mind.

Great observation!
Cheers

See you around

Very nice. I can understand why you ran inside to get your camera. Warm light, the drops and the expression of your son make the picture very intense! Great!

Sometimes the last minute photos turn out to be better than the planned ones. I like the composition, and the way the light goes on the child's face and everything else remains darker. I also like the yellow-brownish tones of the colours.
Regards, Evgenia

A great portrait with a wonderfull mood.
Very good.

Beautifull picture! I like the window with the water drops. This picture is alive!
Congratulation!

Hello Dean!

I feel bad to have missed so many great shots from you. Let me add your cute son to my theme: Priceless Treklens Members Children smiles.

You did very well to cease that moment. A great souvenir for his album.
Bravo!

Awesome lighting. What more can I say, it's terrific.

Dean, this is just super! It's one of those photos I can/am studying for a loooong time. The warm lighting, the frost melting on the glass, the reflections in the glass...everything is just WOW! Your sons expression is priceless! The detail is superb. You're a Pro my friend, no doubt about that. I do hope you have a large print of this in your home or office.

Excellent warm tones, portrait and reflections. Very nice.

Hi, Dean
You have an impressive gallery, but this pic is definitely my favorite. Wonderful light and expression on your kid. Very moody atmosphere. Congrats!

Impresive photo Dean

Hi Dean,

Excellent work. TFS.

cheers

Magnificent Dean..
You know.. I think this one in particular will do very good in B/W... and maybe artificially made a bit older.... don't know why, but this view just gives me the feeling of old days....
In a funny way I miss his little hand against the window.
:-) and indeed the light in months such as March and April are sooo wonderful, specially in the early mornings... I love to go out then just to watch the sun come up and to catch the sky...

Cheers,
Anneke

Such a beautiful portrait! and a gorgeous little boy!
I love the soft gold colors here!

hi dean, nice to meet you, just going through your gallery and i must say very impressive, as you have mentioned your not concerned with points you just want real opinions from the viewers(at least thats the way i see it!), so my real opinions from one serious photographer to the next as i look forward to responding to your work,
this image is technically amazing in every way, my favorite golden light with such excellent details and composition, it all about the expression and the eyes in kid shots and this is good, tells a little story almost, perhaps a simple hurry up dad i am in the car!
anyways nice to meet you,
thanks for your time on this one, i will be back,
scott
