"I'm not feeling very well Daddy"

This one was almost a throwaway due to the rushed nature of the pic and poor framing. We'd just got to my parents place for Mother's Day lunch and I was just getting the D70 out of the bag when "Number 2 Son" comes to tell me he doesn't feel well.

The camera had a 50mm f1.8 on and set at maximum aperature. I just flicked the on switch to capture the look only a 5 year old can give :( The only PP was a slight contrast adjustment and some USM to try and minimize that softness of this lens at f1.8. BTW: Interesting Bokeh in bottom left corner.

Wow, that's soft at maximum aperture :shock: Great detail and clarity in the eyes... I gotta play with my 50/F1.8 more...

Hehe.. yeah it's pretty obvious were the focal point was and how shallow the DOF is.
