Challenge: Why (Basic Editing)
Camera: Pentax *ist DS
Lens: Tamron SP AF 28-75mm f/2.8 XR Di for Pentax
Location: Kamloops, B.C.
Date: Jun 5, 2007
Aperture: f/2.8
ISO: 400
Shutter: 1/125 sec.
Date Uploaded: Jun 5, 2007

This is one of those ultimate "why" questions. They don't generally do very well.. especially toddler aged. People are sick of them, it takes an extra special photo to "speak" to people other than the parents, etc. etc. etc.

This isn't an extra special photo. It's pretty run-of-the-mill. I wouldn't include it in a package if I did a photo shoot for the parents. It's weak in many areas, it's hampered by Basic Editing, and it'll probably work hard for a 5.2.

But DPL makes me have to enter, so here it is.

Screw you DPC.

*AFTER CHALLENGE* Can't say I'm surprised in the slightest :)

But hey.. 10 comments on a shot that barely made it out of the bottom 25%.. not too shabby :)

Wait a sec -- I recognize that baby! (e.g., IMAGE_ID=481580).

Look at those eyes! I hope people don't write this off as just another baby shot. Babies are great subjects and you have a fine image here.

...because you've got adorable children? Plus, it's easier than taking 'teen' portraitures!

cute kid. A little bit overexposed.

I am not a good photographer, I do not claim to be better than anyone, any criticism is meant to be constructive criticism......
