Hi Mike, Calling pose is especially nice and I so love the bed of shells. Rim lighting is also nice and I am guessing that the brightness in his eye is from reflection off the sand? In any case, it gives life. I do see a loss of image quality from your crop and feel that it's a bit tight in the frame, maybe give him a little more room and solve both? I also like the baby blue background, fitting for a little one.
Thank you all for the comments,,,,I also liked the baby blue BG with the baby!!;)
Lighting was very difficult...no flash with me and mid morning sun...
