I was in Tanzania for my honeymoon (yeh yeh, i know) i was visiting the WTO-WA-WBU village, taking pictures of children around me - this boy got upset i didn't take notice of him at first - and than i did, and you can see the mixture of feelings...

Hi Omri, congratulations! So that's what you've been busy with all these. A great come-back shot here, great expression, and well executed.

what a long honeymoon omri............ :)
congratulations
sure missed you here and it's really nice to see you back
yup the 2 feelings are very much visible to me. seems like you made his day :)
i hope to see more of you around
take care :)

p.s. how was your brother's trip to india??

almost a dizzying close-up. but it works. nice shot.

Very tight crop but a great portrait with a good DOF and warmth. Could have been called 'A Tear and a Smile'.

I would have preferred the face to be slightly sharpened to give more texture to the skin. See workshop.

Lovely portrait. The kid is really cute and the tight framing works very well here to show these mixed emotions. Good work.
