LOL It is a stage they all go trough.  They don't think they look "cool" in pictures.  Looking "cool" is upper most in their minds.  Pick your battles, and from and mom of a 30 yo man they do grow out of it, and pictures isn't a battle worth fighting.  You have 2 handsome sons there and you will have the girls calling soon.

Thanks Judy. About the girls - they are already coming. LOL

Mine is only 2 1/2 and all ready bartering treats for model time.

Not all is lost with these shots, actually the third one on the playground is one of my favorites of the series.  Convert to black and white add a touch of grunge and your set. 

I see your in the Carolinas, where bout's.  I'm just outside Charlotte in Ft. Mill, SC.

Pixel, what is grunge?

I am close to Greenville, NC.

" Pixel, what is grunge? "

Good Question CMH. 

Also I happen to like that last one, There is feeling with it of discouragement or perhaps sadness. 

It is a good shot.  I do agree b&w would emphasize that.

Keep up the good work.

*just let me know when you have saved the image I manipulated and I will delete it off my server.

Grunge = dirty, gritty
I used a template from Graphic Authority's Urban Youth.  You simply drag your picture into the .psd template.

Ask Tyler what he thinks about this one...

[JudyB]

Awesome!!  What is he thinking about!
