My Baby

Posted by Michael Rawluk (Williams Lake, BC, Canada) on 8 November 2007 in People & Portrait and Portfolio.

Okay, okay. It is not a good photograph and my crappy scanner didn't help but that is my baby. He turns 27 November 8th at 9:37 a.m..

Happy Birthday, Ben. You are just about half as old as I and catching up.

I appreciate your comments and constructive criticism.

That's a really great shot. I like the haziness. It gives it a very nostalgic feel.

Michael, it doesn't matter how good the photo or scan as long as we get to see the ones we love anytime we want.

I think it's great...and it makes me miss my baby girl. I'm bout to fly home today ans I get to see her.

Nice work.

Hey you 'ol' fart.' (You must be around 54! I'm only 52.) This is a great image. Warm, nostalgic...with lovely composition. I'd never have known it was a scan of an old photo...and I could have believed you purposely went for a 'soft' focus. Hope the B'day is a happy celebration for the both of you!

I see what you mean when you said, "Wait until you have kids who are as old as you think you are," I'll probably understand more when I have kids of my own.
