* This child is just precious and I want to commend you on the angle you used when you shot this photo. Your photo does not reveal what this child looks like and you have preserved its safety. I realize that my opinion is not a popular one, but in our society it is not safe to place a photo of a baby or young child on the Internet. Too many people know where that child is and what they look like. A sad commentary of what we've become, but it's here. Your photo is the perfect portrait of a child.[reply]Sherri @ 2006-06-15 16:58:10
* lovely and fun shot[reply]fabrizio Biaggi @ 2006-06-15 22:10:21
* I like the composition with the top of the kids head cropped so that focus is on the wonderful un self concious pose. And the hat makes it![reply]fotojo @ 2006-06-15 23:31:07
* What a great way to enjoy the warm weather! I like to do that myself. :o)[reply]micki @ 2006-06-16 00:02:43
* Thank you to Jane, Sherri, Joanne, Micki, Bruno. Heath, Hans, Angad, David L, Shazeen, Michael C and Fabrizio for placing Comments here. Much appreciated.

I rarely post people-pics because of the asocial suspicions that abound in the UK but this seemed harmless and rather cute. As Micki says, we all have times when weâd like to just zonk out like that on the spot! [reply]AG @ 2006-06-16 09:36:42
* It is great the viewer doesn't see the face of the child, just the hat, the dress and the shoes - and of course this fantastic pose :-)! I have tried it in my Photoshop and this picture also looks brilliant in b&w.[reply]Ella @ 2006-06-16 14:03:29
* Thank you, Ella. I was so taken by the black-white-blue simplicity that I did not think to try just the black and white but I have just seen how good that looks, yes. It takes on another level of emotion, somehow. Youâve given me a nice reserve for a dud day! Thanks for the Comment.[reply]AG @ 2006-06-16 15:39:41
* great emotional capture ag. i'd also like to see what this would look like in b/w[reply]shane j montgomery @ 2006-06-16 16:15:16
* Nice capture! Great colours and nice framing.[reply]Erik @ 2006-06-16 22:28:17
* Thank you to Shane and Eric for the further Comments. I will work up a b&w version to post at a quiet moment. The level of interest in this shot has been a pleasant surprise![reply]AG @ 2006-06-17 07:53:20
