Mom and Dad's Thanksgiving

A day full of family, conversation, cooking, eating and a
little football provided a few photo ops. I always love
being around my nephews. They have such outgoing person-
alities. When they are caught up in any activity, it
usually provides the best candid moments.

NOTE: I'm still exprimenting with Adjustment Layers in
Black and White. This has two Adjustment Layers (Curves
and Threshold) adjusted and flattened. I then added
another layer to which I applied a Poster Edges Artistic
Filter and blended in.

Handy hands!

Like the scale of those hands. Not sure on the poster edge filter, it seems to be distracting me the main image

Oooooh, great expression! Very well done!

Great expression, love the grip on the hand.

Adorable candid! Love the composition!

OK, you lost me...but I love the effect and the little guy is adorable. I agree the hands grab the eye with a special tug at the heartstrings.
Guest 26-Nov-2005 02:31

but i do like the picture with it's subject matter and light.

Glad someone's keeping track of how they got where they've gone.
I'm totally lost!

A lovely picture.

Excellent shot. What is cool is that you have created two triangles on either side of the child with a diagonal line walking the eye through the photo.
