I visited my Dad's house for a few days before Christmas. This is my little brother, Joseph. My sister and brother-in-law gave him a set of Legos for Christmas, he's trying to put it together.

I love the shutter speed uppage on f/1.8 and ISO 1600, but ack! The grain, the off-focusness...it's enough to drive a woman crazy!

Looks a little overprocessed imho (too much noise reduction)

The composition and light is good but the image looks soft. Even if you were going for the soft focus look there isnt really anything of him in focus so it just looks OOF. That doesnt stop it from being a good christmas memory, tho!

Perhaps some post processing sharpening to help out. Good composition.

Very nice personal feel to this. Sorta Norman Rockwellish.
