A candid shot of my Grandson, I just liked the way he glanced over and the hat and the scarf created kind of a mysterious look. The sepia tones seemed to work well and I just had to do a selective for his blue eyes. Portraits are not what I would consider one of my strengths but this one is one of my favorite portrait shots, i hope it does alright and if not I like it so it really does not matter!

Great processing Bob...the sepia works really well and I do like the blue eye...I am glad it finished well for you,and also glad you really didn't care where it finished or how it scored...shooting for yourself is tops in my book...

Very nice shot. I like the eye being the main subject. Nice angle with the hat.

I like this. A good bit of mystery, and great clarity in the eye really draws the attention of the viewer.

Great choice of tones. Fits the photo perfectly. Love the one blue eye and the tilt of the hat. Composition is spot on in my humble opinion. What a cutie.

i love the focus on the eye - i really don't like the choice of sepia at all - b/w would work sooooo much better on this IMHO
