    Not a bad shot there. Would be really neat if you could get almost directly underneath as he's bouncing around. THis might even look best on a Video camera! Try zooming in for facial expressions, though he doesn't look that scared

    Hi LH,

    Nice exposure. Your son's face is in shadow, but we can see how he is focusing on his next step. Did you take any others? I would have tried zooming in as GB suggests, or going wide to get the tops of both columns and exaggerate your son's height.

    Nice shot as is...

    He was having fun (he went for a second round after this-didn't take pics on that though). I should have shot some video, but I don't have a video camera (unless the G2's video mode counts). I was actually lucky to get this shot, as I was shooting with the G2. AF is not a strength of this point and shoot camera.
