Hi Eric, I couldn't have been more off then...:) That is funny! Yet it also stresses my point that assessing such an image requires the background info, use or intention. Very cool. Thanks for your reply.
He was actually thinking about what he was going to say next. When I saw the picture, I kind of laughed because of every person I've ever met on this planet, he is the most worry free and happy-go-lucky person I've ever met. In other words, this in my mind is a hilarious shot given his personality.
Hi Eric, I kinda agree with Mohammad, technically, it's a top notch piece of work. .
To fully assess the merit of this photo, I would like a bit more info, specifically about the intentions / purpose of this shot.
judging by the expression of this boy, he's not too happy; as a portrait for parents, grand parents or any product advertisement, I think the expression, even though a very strong one, is not what you're looking for. (or make them want to show off how well behaved and cute their little boy is, if you see what I mean)
On the other hand, it shows a very natural display of human behavior, and would be perfect to illustrate such an article. I can also see uses for such an expression in advertisements and such. The image expresses an attitude, and a very well captured one...
