I have nothing witty and clever to say other than the poor kid is going to look back at these pics some day and wonder what was wrong with what he was wearing in the first place. Your photoshop skills are amazing!
I love that devilish little smirk and stare. What a cutey! |

Holy Cow!!! That's an amazing amount of processing - from removing your reflection in the door window, calling up some details in the window, the textured grain look on the environment and most of all adding the overalls!!!! Had you not posted that you added the overalls I would have though your little one was really wearing them for the photo. I love what you did by adding and/or bringing up the textures and some grain for it gives this photo a feeling of nostalgia- of the good ol' tymes. The rough edges around the border instead of a sharp lined one was also a very nice touch. It helps add to that nostalgic feel of an old photograph. The tones and contrasts in this image are bold and have a great dynamic range - very eye-catching. You did an excellent job in the post-processing.
---And wouldn't it be wonderful if we could Photo-shop clothes up for our growing children instead of having to constantly buy them;-) |

Deb, Deb, Deb - Virtual clothes are MUCH cheaper than real ones and with the Transform and Liquify tools, they never grow out of them! :)

Now that's just brilliant! I may just end up going back and doing this someday. :) |

Excellent shot. |

| You added the overalls?? That's great. I like Standing Man as a title for this. Very good shot and PP. Grain works well here. |

| Okay, you are my Photoshop HERO! You turned what was frankly an ordinary and rather soft snapshot into something absolutely stunning! I can't believe how seamlessly you added those overalls. Wonderful in every way. |

| i'd never thought the suit was added in digitally, omg this job is very well done. the dirty edit is great, and lends to that "worker in his environment" kinda look. i mean, Riley looked as if he owns a garage or some workshop in there! nice work Ken |

I hope you're not linking me in with "The Anti-Digital Art" mob because I'm outspoken about hating it in challenges here. lol.
But if you are, oh well, I like the work you've done anyway. He almost looks Ozarkian enough :) |

Ken, he looks like he's saying, "Hey you put that durned camera down now!"
I adore that illegal stuff. Shhhhh we'll keep it quiet here. The PP really works with the outfit, the grungy look and the bibbs sure fit.
Amazing. |

Priceless Ken.
A bit of toning on this, and it would look like something pulled out of Grandpa's cigar box.

Tom Joad: "Sure don't look none too prosperous." Grapes of Wrath, 1940
This famous book/movie came to mind immediately. The intense editing suits it perfectly. I love the overalls and the planks on the floor. This is outstanding, Ken. WAY TO GO.

"WOW"............ I just "LOVE" this one mate, of young Riley, so very much.....
He is just so grown up now, and such a cutie.....
You now how much I love him, and also love how you got his reflection in the glass door behind him.....
You should have this one done quite large on canvas, exactly as it is, as it would be so impressive, on any wall, especially your own wall, and also on mine.....
