Daydreaming...

For me digital photography is far too clean.  I like the grit of film.  But this time around, I had my dSLR.  My youngest, Noah, was enjoying his "bubba" milk, or has he calls it, "Bubba Droat"...

Well, I was outside using the Barbecue with some wonderful Chicken Breast fillets and Squash roasting nicely, and he was watching me, and playing, almost a "peek-a-boo".

In a moment that he was looking off into the backyard lost in his own dreaming, I lifted up my camera and took a photo.

In colour, it was very undramatic, but I always shoot in colour on my dSLR in RAW and convert it if I want to in CS6.
This time it was a little different.  I wanted it to have a timey, vintage (almost) feel to it, so a bit of Alien Skin (Exposure 4) magic, and I had an image that I was thinking of.
