  I like it-
  I like the shallow focus, and the tone behind-
  was that from the lens?

  Any editing trickery gone into this,
  or was it imaged with a lens?

  Sorry to ask,
  but loads of people do their imaging with a computer, then call it photography-

  The most striking thing is the composition, and I think it works here-

  sirvad- can i ask why? it doesn’t do much good if you say you don’t like it and thats it….. maybe it’s just not your taste, which is fine. i actually think it resembles a bit like your photo of your child “looking up”…… like its the same sort of idea

  jb7- Yeah its from the lens. only changed the white balance and sharpness in Aperture. other then that, no other editing. the lens is a canon 855mm f/1.2L.
  i shot wide open at f/1.2, which gave me that very shallow depth of field. thanks

  martin- thanks for the comment

  I like the image, well captured. It’s a bit strange to see the head cut off like that, leaves me wondering what I’m missing?
