*crying cause I bought the 1.8 and not the 1.4*..

and he looks almost angelic.. I'm kinda betting that his parents may not think that though.. Good shot... as you said 'thats one sharp lens'... and the colours are superb.. :)

As far as I am concerned, it is a beautiful picture. I like the colours, the sharpness. and the pose. The background contextualises the picture. I also like you telling us the lense used. Excellent!
I notice that you used a flash. I would advise you to use a difuser to prevent the sharp shadows, but in this case they are hard to find even if you look for them. Well done!

TC - A reminder that forum rules (see them right at the top of this page :wink:) are mages should be no more than 800 pixels on the longest side - this is 1024

As for the image - I agree with the others this is one sharp image - I'd like it rotated anti clockwise slightly though since the angle of shot is moving the vertials a little clockwise.
