Riley was helping me pound the nails down in the deck today.

I did crop this one a tad to straighten it. I also sharpened it a teeny bit.

Sharpening, as well as contrast, saturation, are both kinda needed if you shoot RAW, or so I'm told. There are times I *like* the way the RAW shot looks, but they sure don't do well with the general public... Awfully big hammer, awfully small tender fingers! :-)

He's such a cute kid. In this photo it looks as if he's taking aim at his hand... I hope no fingers were smashed.

Cute kid! That hammer looks so big next to him, but he seems to be holding it with confidence. The DOF really helps this be more than a snapshot.

What's great is when he can do the lawn for you hee hee

Nothing beats a little boy with a hammer.

It seems universal that kids have to help us out when we're doing something like this. Great job on the focus; this photo is razor sharp.

Great candid. Although I find myself wincing a bit as I watch this in fear of Riley's fingers. (Good think I don't have kids.) Very nice.

He is so cute, Art! Love the blue and yellow repeating in the trash can/wood, shirt, and shoes. Very nicely done :)

He sure is growing like a weed! I love the look of concentration he has here.

Another sweet candid of my young Riley..... I just love how you manage to capture the special moment in his life and then share them with us. I do wish I could cuddle him one of these days..... He would be about the same height as me or soon as he is growing so fast.....
