I'm surprised this could be validated. The smooth skin is just, sorry, a mess.

On voting 3: the good idea is presented with too much noise the without focus.

I really miss focus here, this would rock! Please, please do this again with proper focus! I even don't mind the leaves in the lower right and upper left corner.

Calmness - yepp, I was at a distance of 60 yards or so, glad he was calm! :D The others were not this calm, that's why I couldn't take a closer position. This distance is also the reason for being able to focus properly and getting such a DOF.
PP - a little levels and a tiny bit of saturation, both during RAW processing, mild USM later, nothing more. Must have done it because it was just before sunset and the west sky was cloudy.

For the fifth time coming back to see this picture I found two hands, moments before grabbing each other. I like it.
