    Good capture, but this type of shot is much, much, better in colour.

    Looks great to me in B&W, has a warm and happy feel to the photo.

    For most of the general public who do not even take snapshots in black and white, their first impression of a black and white family photo is that it is old and must have been taken a long time ago. The reason is that they have generally seen black and white shots only in old family albums. The assumption made is also that if he/she was a certain age when the black and white was taken, they must be very old by now.

    All my childhood photos are in colour by the way.

    Thanks tegan - I knew the distractions were in there, I just left them to see if you would notice. lol.

    tomorrowstreasures - I like this shot very much, it's very playful.
    Perhaps it could use a slight boost in contrast but that's it. It might also work REALLY well in sepia.

    Thx

    SEPIA!??? If someone turned 90 this year, we would expect to see a childhood photo of him or her in sepia!!! That would be almost cruel.
