The cat will only put up being held by the boy for only so long before it struggles to get loose!
I think its a cute picture of the boy and his cat. But then again, I am biased towards the people and the pets close to me!
There are always two people in every picture: the photographer and the viewer. – Ansel Adams

Daddy’s Little Girl

That angelic face had a booger sticking on one nostril and food smudges around the mouth! Good thing I learned (accidentally, actually) how to use the healing tool in Photoshop, and cleaned up the face a bit!
It’s a steep learning curve when it comes to taking photographs of people and making them look nice in the process. My kids are ready models so, I should do this kind of photography more often!

I was reading some comments about converting color pictures to black and white. I know very little, actually next to nothing, about fiddling with whatever in Photoshop to make a good black and white picture.
All I did previously was to turn the image using a photo editor to black and white and maybe darken it a little. That’s about it. With this picture, I tried fiddling with the Hue/Saturation, the Color and Contrast, etc.
I guess there’s still a lot to learn about converting a picture to black and white and give it that special well done black and white look.

I told him not to smile because if he smiles he cannot help but say “Cheese”!
But still, I like the solemn look on his face when he doesn’t smile!
