Priceless shot there Owen! Wow...this is definately a keeper, great for a 21st shot, framed and signed by his parents/mates etc! Would love some EXIF/lens details! Flash etc!? How did the colour one turn out?

Thanks for the comments guys. I'm thinking I'm going to get it printed out for the parents, apparently they've never been able to get a shot of him smiling.
Here is some EXIF info:

50mm
f - 1.8
1/160 sec
ISO 800

The colour one is pretty good, the blurred background has some nice soft colours in it, but I thought I'd try it as a black & white and I like the way it has turned out. I'll post the colour version shortly :)

No flash either, just available light in a community hall.

Great lens ain't it ;)

I can't take candid shots of toddlers to save my life esp if I have to try and capture them smiling. Hard task and you've done it beautifully.

Here's the colour version minus the cloning out of the glasses and the thumb.

Wow for ISO 800 there is very little/no noise...well done!

Thanks Geoff, Catcha.

The noise is quite okay, and in one b&w version I was working on I actually added more noise because I didn't think there was enough. However, I decided to go for the smoother version with a slight glamour blur to it.
