Peek A Boo Zeke

Uploaded: October 18, 2007

Description


This is my son, Zeke (short for Ezekiel). I took the family to a nearby park last weekend and did a little photo shoot. They all turned out really well and can't wait to share them with you. Here is the first one.

ISO 400, 1/125, 6.3, all natural light, handheld, taken on 10-14-07 around 12:00 Noon at a nearby park.

I did sharpen his eyes a little and adjusted for skin tone a bit. It was also cropped a little and used Virtual Photographer to add an ambience effect, which really brought out the colors. This is the end result.

Let me know what you think. I would appreciate any feedback, advice, and comments you may have.

Thanks for looking and I hope you have a great day!


Exif: F Number: 6.3, Exposure Bias Value: +0, Exposure Time: 1/125, Flash: flash did not fire, ISO: 400, White Balance: auto white balance, Focal Length: 100mm, Camera Model: Canon EOS DIGITAL REBEL XT

Well, I'd been to your site to see what you had a couple of times and nothing was up. When I got here this time and I saw this I said out loud (to no one but myself), "Oh My!" I then caught myself and thought, "This is adorable."

Great job Amber! I love the angle you are taking the picture from. I also immediately thought that the shirt was a great one for him to be wearing, as it enhances the photo like Lisa stated in her comment.

Adorable photo. If you haven't yet, you should get a hard copy of this one and frame it. It is a keeper.
