Default Special rainy day model

--------------------
After the birth of our daughter, i, somehow, neglected our boy (as far as photography is concerned).
But today, both of us decided to have a lil' session together (without the ladies ).
Here are two views of the set.



Rainy day model.

Thank yall!!!

Yes i am glad we could some time together. And it was actually fantastic: May be short; but great!

I had taken my (his) point & shot (since i didn't want to go in the wet with my big gun) and he was very excited to shoot worms and all the like that comes out when it is wet. There is a particular shot of me he took that i love so much (Nah! I'll keep it jealously private ) and i was so surprise that despite the bad conditions, he could have such a clear and sharp shot.

How could you forget a model like this - he is so cute.

That 1st foto is excellent - has everything - your son is posing perfectly, colourful ( paving, umbrella, clothes ), DOF and composition. Well done Drax. Cheers, Bernz

The first shot appeals to me, nice color, focus and DoF. His skin is beautifully perfect. I am glad you spent some quality time with him, very important!
