Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.
Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Dear All,
Jean gave a birth of a cute boy on Mar 31, 2006 in St Paul's Hospital.
The baby and Jean are all well and will checkout hospital tomorrow.
We are extremely happy with the new baby ten years after first child Julia.
I am sure that he will be a new Hong Kong Connection of DSLR in the future and he just says hello to uncles and aunties in the fourm.
Cheers
Poon

Poon and Jean
Thanh told me your good news last night. Good to hear also that there was no need for a Caesarian section and he was delivered naturally at the last minute.
Congratulations to all of you. Now you have to learn all over again how to get by on next to no sleep.
Cheers

Poon,
We're all truly thrilled for all of you. Congratulations on this most important event; we're anxiously awaiting more images, but next time shot on a real camera. None of this Kodak film rubbish, please.
Please pass on our love to Jean.

Poon. Congratulations to you and your wife for the beautiful addition to your family. I remember the birth of my children and it is indeed a special moment to be treasured.
As for a name how about: Nicholas Ian Kevin Oscar Nigel 
If I'm alone in a forest and my wife is not around to hear what I say, am I still wrong ??

Wow, what a cutie with a full head of hair, but with no eyebrows!
Congratulations Mr Poon and Mrs Lo on the birth of your son. I have a name suggestion: Poon Hung Lok Jnr.
I'll definitely have to find time to visit HK sometime soon to welcome your newcomer to the family!
