Default Rose Curiosity

I took this shot of my son this morning. I told him to hold the rose and look at it, maybe smell it or whatever. And for some reason he kept putting his hand near his face and I kept saying "stop that!" Well turns out, I love this shot of him with his hand near his mouth. I think it looks natural. So I tweaked it a little in Photoshop and this is what I got. I think his head looks a little big but its the angle I was at I guess. I'm still a very new newbie to photography. I use a Kodak EasyShare Point and Shoot on AUTO most of the time. Basically I'm just a mom who loves taking pictures of the kids. Feel free to comment.

I love it! I agree with savvyd. It is kind of creepy, but lovely.

Its funny that you all would think it is creepy. I'm not usually one to take creepy pics but here is another shot that I took from that same set that I thought was creepy too. Maybe it has to do with the tin type feature that I used. Thanks for the compliments!!

I like the shot. The best shots of your kids are the ones where they're being themselves. That makes this one perfect!
