Comment from Sange
I like the casual relaxed "pose" you captured here Mary.
Fine focus, nice framing and fine control on exposure/white balance.
Has a fine natural look.
This is a framer Grandma!

Thanks Sange, just finished renovating our hallway and was looking for some replacement photos and definitely picked this one. :)

a very good portrait of your grandson Jake, even if I prefer a more natural pose, not smiling at the camera;
good framing, lighting and sharp focus;

Thanks Fred I guess this one does look posed but I just happened to walk by with camera when he was sitting smiling at some thought. Appreciate your feedback. :) Mary

A beautiful portrait. I like the lighting and the great background. The colors are great and the skin tones could not be better. I like the smile and the twinkle in his eye.
