Oh Cool Dude! He's obviously only distantly related to the tooth fairy. His hair is way too cool :D.

I aspire to make B&W images as well as you do someday, so don't actually have any technical advice to offer ....(now that the arm sticking out of the head is gone), ...I'm here to read about your processing techniques. Beautiful image, I love it! ...another treasure for the family album.

Very nice photo...looks great in B&W. Glad to hear that Aidan is enjoying school. Elementary school's really great (Better than Middle School) and I hope he has a lot of fun!

With Aidan in school now your daughter will have to fill in for more entries. Yup, Rowan will do. :)

What a cool photo. This is like a shot from the '50s. What a classic indeed. How wonderful that he is enjoying school!

"Timeless" is a good word. I love this! The high contrast BW works. The expression, the pose, the background (even the tree reflected in the screen door) all come together nicely.

(And I see you couldn't hold yourself back from adding a mild vignette. It certainly works here!)

Don't ya just love the first day of school? This is so cute, and it will be a great memory to cherish! Excellent use of b&w.

Ahh, americana. Very wholesome image. Clean lines, clean kid. Doing it in b/w leaves me with an even stronger impression that I'm looking back into a simpler time.

Yea, this is great. Feels so Leave it to Beaver somehow!

I missed the arm sticking out of his head? Bummer! Great shot, and he really is growing up fast. You need to do a collage of shots of him showing the progression just since you've started at DPC. One for Rowan, too. You can skip the Tooth Fairy, though.

That's great he's digging school. That vignette works well to keep me focused on Aidan, and the B&W was a good choice.

He looks so cool - LOL!

I like the use of B&W in this one. I love the contrast and the vignetting is lovely and subtle. The arm/elbow sticking out of his head is a bit off-putting though :)

HEY! The arm is gone!! :) Ha, you're quick!
