 My "Acronym" image was so easy to do, as I knew exactly what I wanted.

I flew down to see our new baby grandson Judd, so wanted a photo of him, with our son Ryan, the babies Father. I had a picture all ready in my mind, and it turned out exaclty how I pictured it.

It is a beautiful silhouette of a Father love for his newborn son.

I choose the Acronym "F2F" or "FTF", which means "Face 2 Face" or "Face To Face". I do hope our DPC members are able to guess what my Acronym is, as I had so much fun shooting my beautiful grandson Judd, with his Father.

Not a lot of processing at all, and could have been entered into a "Basic" challenge.

Way to go getting this beautiful photo into a challenge. What perfect timing, and a perfect fit for the challenge! It is so heartwarming and natural looking, like he is oblivious that you are even there taking pictures. I love the blinds in the background. Great job, Shez!

This is really beautiful. the silhouetting is done in such a way that you can still see just enough of the faces to look really balanced. I love it.
