Hi Pieter,
Original POV and very good composition.
To picture the youngster in this particular way you are perfectly succeeding in producing a nice portrait with a very high "cuteness" factor.
Well done Pieter,
Regards, Ruud

Hoi Pieter,
Wat een prachtige foto. Zo'n lief koppie, met van die mooie grote ogen. Prachtige 'over de schouder' opname, met perfect kleuren en super scherpte.
Nog gefeliciteerd met je 31st verjaardag.
Welk lettertype gebruik je voor je tekst?
Groeten,
Niek

A very sweet portrait of this baby. I love the context of its mother's fur and the composition works very well, making the little one seem smaller still. TFS

A cute little guy indeed, Pieter.
You managed to catch him in perfect timing.
The eye contact is fantastic.
Sharp details and good exposure.

Hi Pieter,
OK the cuteness factor is really high here. How can you not love a face like that. A nice exposure has the colors and detail looking great. I would also like to see this in the portrait framing mode to tighten the composition even more. Looks great. What an expressive face.

Una conmovedora captura Pieter con la expresión más bella que podías captar allí.
Me encanta el encuadre elegido de acuerdo al POV, con buena agudeza y DOF.
El fondo es algo confuso y creo que es posible optimizarlo con Neat Image.
Una interesante presentación... gracias por compartirla.
Un gran saludo... Ricardo

A stirring capture Pieter with the most beautiful expression that you could capture there.
I love the elected framing according to POV, with good sharpness and DOF.
The bottom is something confused and I believe that it is possible to optimize it with Neat Image.
An interesting presentation... thank you for sharing.
Best regards... Ricardo

Hi Pieter,
High + cute factor. Well composed, sharp & detailed, excellent POV..
Your DOF puts all the attention right where it should be..on the babe's face. It's called wide-eyed innocence :)

Pieter, maybe what I like the most in this image is the fact that although we don't see all of the guy's parent, we know it's there. It's not obvious, but it's there.

Besides, great sharpness pov and composition. I enjoy saturation too.

Hello Pieter,
Too busy with my home work, I was a bit inactive on TN, so I am happy to discover your new superb photo.
31 year old, lucky young guy ;-) But this cute monkey is younger ;-) It is a tender composition. Technicaly it is very good.
Bravo my friend and thanks for sharing.

Hi Pieter
I don't know why I didn't critique this one already!
I know you had a lot of problems sharpening this one, and I think the result is just about right. The noise and artefacts on the grass have gone as well, probably due to the reduction to TN size.
Normally I'm not a big fan of filling half a photo with dead space but in this case it works because it's almost like the baby is peeking into the photo from the left corner.

Hello Pieter, very nice shot. I love the expression on the baby's face and the focus on the eyes is as it should be. I'm not sure about all the space but I guess it works. Well done.

What a truly beautiful photo.
This little King is so appealing and his eyes really have that - tug at your heart strings - quality to them.
You have captured so much in this one shot.
I think this is an excellent photo.
