Took this image tonight while my little man was in the bath. He's now 13 months old and full of mischief. Lighting was a combination of down lights and a heat lamp, so I shot in RAW and adjusted. PPing for crop, brightness and contrast.

D2h body, Sigma 24-70mm, F5.6.



C&C welcomed!

That's a beautiful photo, and one to be proud of. You must love the little fellow to bits

Great shot Alan, perhaps my monitor but he seems to have a slight orange 'fake tan' sheen to his skin.

He looks like a little mischievous ratbag, just wait until he's a little older

Edit: Was my laptop monitor Slightly out in colour... Main PC it looks great!!!

Top shot. The clarity is amazing..I'm sure he's gona be a little tog himself

just wondering if you meant to have his right eye out of focus? its a little distracting with the light in his right eye being so blury. other then that awesome shot i love it.

Thanks for the comments folks. Portraits are somethng I usually avoid, but the lighting in the bath seemed okay. Until I tried to meter it, this is also on 640 ISO, so the lighting wasn't the best after all. Thats why the DOF is so shallow. Ideally I would have had some bounced flash or the likes, but it was a spur of the moment shot.

His mum is pretty chuffed, so I'm in the good books. Now, to broach the D2x issue with her.....

Love the shot, well done Alan

Great colour under non-standard lighting.
