Comment from Dick Lee Shia
Yes, he's very cute indeed!
I love this portrait so much.
I think for portrait, its better to crop until his forehead/hairline than crop only a bit on top!
But still he looks so adorable!
Perfect capture of the side curling tongue!
An interesting initial impact.
Nice perspective & narrow DOF.
Excellent lighting, focusing & framing.
Thanks for sharing.

What a cute little guy and so happy smiling for grandma and the camera. A good sharp image of him with good skin tones against a nice background. Yes the clipping of the head is a negative but your little guy makes up for it with that adorable smile for grandma! Good Shooting!

Leon, soon to be one year old with a hint of some new teeth. Very good exposure, good background and all showing the happy face. A bit too close on the cop-top side but still tells a happy story.

The curling tongue and playful eyes are winners! The simple shirt framing his lovely face is also terrific! I'm glad you went for it with your new camera! Good luck!
