very nice feel. Like the exposure control and soft backgound.

Very cool pose, setting and BG. I might raise the color temperature a tad.

I really like the pose on this one! It is almost like a little toddler pitching a snit fit, or a bugler sneezing, or somebody hollering loudly (or all of the above!).

Love the pose and details. The whites are on the money. Excellent work!

Hi Alex,

This picture was taken a cloudy and cold day.
In my opinion, that's is closer to reality.
Anyway, it's my style of having images in shades of pastels.

Hi Guy -

I really like this image. The pose is priceless, excellent composition and exposure. The background is very complimentary. Very well done!

What a pose! I would try to warm thie image up a bit by raising the color temp and also adding saturation.

Glenn,

As I mentioned above, this photo was taken a cold and cloudy day.
Warm the temperature and give more saturation would be to make people believe that this picture was taken by a sunny day.
