 This (although one of my faves) was not as easy to shoot as some of my other ones.....That is because my model (the little poop) was cranky and the protractor bothered his 'sensitive' eyes. This is what the dialog was like:

Boy:" Can I be done NOW?"
Me: "NO....Just one more shot"

An hour later:

Boy: "I think I am quitting."
Me: You cannot just quit! It's not nice."
Boy: "I'm bored; can I finish my granola bar?"
Me: "You may not; you are disrupting my creative muse."
Boy: "What dose 'muse' mean?"
Me: "It's my inspiration, my life, my creativity"
Boy: "oh" (Silence)
Boy: What dose 'disrupt' mean?"
Me: "SIGH you can be done now"

Critique Club Review:

Good thing he hung in there as long as he did. Nice picture.

As others have noted, the highlight on the nose is completely blown out and featureless. His right eye, viewer's left, starts to dissapear into the shadow. Along with the birght nose, it becomes a little distracting. A lighting angle less from the side and a little more towards the front, would help here. Or a second fill light could also do the job.

I like the crop, overall brightness, color, contrast, saturation, and hue are fine.

A very amusing photo, and one to be pround of. Nice work.
