Hi Marc,

That's what I was thinking. What about fill flash? Do you think that could help?

Keep them coming!

He really does appear to be smiling. As stated....the light was not your friend with this one. Fill would definitely help.....but I know what you mean by making it that more difficult to hand hold. Perhaps a slightly over cast day to photograph might be workable.
