 Taken on a perfect fall day...before the rains come, but after a large amount of leaves have fallen. These had been blown off the sidewalk by some workers into a nice big blanket three inches deep.

Lit with a bounce flash off a 32" white reflector. The sun was low and behind clouds.

Processing is typical basic stuff except for some burning around the edges and a layer mask to remove the S/H layer from their faces.

Well....I am pretty positive this is Dr. Achoo kids? If not they are adorable...if so ...they are adorable. The image is nearly perfect. The lighting is fantastic, the colors are great, the exposure is right on, and the pose is darling. They only thing I would change about this picture is the writing on your son's shirt. It is a bit distracitng. A plain shirt would have workied even better. Just my opinion....otherwise, I think the image is GREAT.
