Ynigo Lee

My son Ynigo 20 months old peek at me behind the sofa, no words yet but I got the message.

I was testing a Canon 6d Body with the Sigma A 50mm 1.4. I was trying to get action shots of my boy jumping and running then we got tired so we took a rest. Then I caught him peeking at me behind the sofa so I immediately took the shot. The best shot of the day came unplanned, I'm glad I had the camera in my hand to capture his smile telling me "Come on daddy I'm ready to play again".

Great shot!! My very active son is one of the hardest subjects to take a picture of and the best shots are often unplanned as well.

Great capture in that natural light!

Nice one ! Cute kid and the softness is nice !

I guess the light from the window is so diffused and the upholstery of the sofa is white making the bounced light softer. The only thing I have retouched in this photo was the eyes, I just did a little dodge and burn and that's it. I have this printed and on the print I cropped the photo to show more of my son.

This is dope, love the feel of this image.

I just got a 6D, and will be testing out the same combination. I don't think I have anyone quite as cute to test on, though!
