    Little Boy Blue & The Man on the Moon

    I just discovered Photo Critique, and just rediscovered my passion for photography.

    I've always the creative process of composing a photograph, but being able to delve back into full frame photography with a digital camera has really got me excited again.

    I took this photo about a year ago of my son; his eyes really are that blue and I thought contrasting them with black & white would really accentuate his eyes.

    I want to get good at this and take my photos to the next level, I look forward to your feedback.

    UPDATE: The smallest I can get my photo file size is 384 kb in Photoshop Elements 9, and this site says the file is still to big?! How do I make it small, I have the file size set a 'zero' in PS9!

    Upload it on photobucket, save to desktop then upload it here. That's how I usually do it.
    Every other artist begins with a blank canvas, a piece of paper. The photographer begins with the finished product.
