great capture . I like the conversion , and the tears are great ( poor little one ) . I think its more than a snapshot . Good job ....

Nice capture and processing. What a mean dad - taking a picture instead of comforting his baby Wink
aww, poor bubba. The black and white looks great.
Hey Paul.

I hate to be critical because I have a lot of respect for your work...but the tears seem a bit over sharpened or otherewise false when taken in conjunction with the rest of the photo. You have done a great job of isolating them - but a bit of work equalizing them back into the scene would improve the photo IMO.

Sorry to be critical...
Thanx everyone.

Chris:Im mean. Big Grin

No need to be sorry at all Rob, your critic and comments is much appreciated. Yes i might have gone over the top with the tears, pp was sharpening applied to the eyes and the tears only, also increased the contrast on the tears (mask)

I see what you mean. Thanx for the critique.

Thats not mean. Putting this photo in the newspaper when she turn 18 is mean...

Great portrait shot with a difference. I like it.
