What a superb image- it has everything! Fabulous lighting, great DOF, sharpness, great composition - nice diagonal. Different perspective, good colour and what a fabulous teenage shot. I bet even the kid likes it and at that age they don't like anything!!! I sing your praises and expect to see it in contention for a win!! #483244

Monika, your gallery makes me sick and I hate you... just kidding ... I appreciate your work and am glad that a great photographer can also take a nice, simple every day picture --- it gives me hope. Thanks for the body of your work; you make this site a better place and give many others (at least me) something to aspire to. Mike #483256

Dale, Ann, Carolyn, Robin, Murry, Terry, Amanda, and Michael – thank you very much for all your great comments on this image!!! I really appreciate that you took time to look at and to write to me!
The whole idea of this scene I had in my head a couple days but finally yesterday I got the chance to do it. My son Artur (on this photo) was very cooperative during our session in the small tree house. From time to time we changed the angle to shooting him so he could easily get relaxed and could always look very natural here. It was fun to do it, but I also found some difficulties with the lighting which was changing every minute. Once the sun was out, once was covered by the clouds, very tricky and gave me some good lessons for the future ;-).
Your nice comments made me really happy! Once again – thank you for them so much!
