6, of course a 6. This is magnificent. How in the world is this a photograph. I love this beyond words. And you, dear friend, created it. Congratulations on your contest win. You definitely deserved it.

Hi Lori...this is such a wonderful work of art. I think your post processing has turned it into a painting and yet you have sustained the excellent photographic detail in his face and hands and pole and net. Your choice of shading has made it a vintage photo. I like that just a bit of green in the water. Your light and shadows are playing comfortably...giving the shadows their place if they don't get too dark. :D Wonderful. Very deserving of the win in the contest! Norman Rockwell-ish! Love it! Cyber six my friend.

Comment from Snopaw


Lori, this is awesome. You have such a talent for portrait photography to begin with, really an eye for catching the moment, as you have done with Cater in this shot. Then to add the sepia tones to this, giving it such an artistic flair is just over the top, AWESOME.

Great artistic richness found in this portrait of your Grandson! Nice atmospheric soft blends surrounding him and appealing soft lighting. I love the palette of natural tones.

Outstanding!!!!! I love the composition bringing in all of the elements bringing high interest in the shot. The colors are superb and create a soft feel that works well. I may have lightened up the area where the net is bringing in a little more of that detail but thats just me (-: This one is a keeper and should be framed!

Love this capture. So much like a Norman Rockwell painting.. Wink. The angle of the shot of this young fisherman is great. The capture of the light is great. The clarity is great. The image is balanced and eye appealing to the viewers. Great eye and great job overall

Comment from michiganmike


A great shot with looks particularly good in this tone. I like the fishing gear and especially the vest. The foggy look of the background is perfect and his expression is superb.

Beautiful photo of your handsome grandson. This looks like a painting. I love his serious expression and the warm colors. Gorgeous lighting with a very nice composition that tells a story. A wall hanger for sure. ~Alveria

Hi Lilibug,
Love the tones in this image. I don't think there is anything you could have done to make this image any better...it's perfect! Your grandson's pose is wonderful. Love his expression. This kind of reminds me of a Norman Rockwell painting. Super Job of creating this! :o) Helvi
