Judges Comment

this is a standout image. it was an instant fave early on, and continued to be a fave all the way through this contest. a very strong image, expertly framed, and beautifully managed as far as light, color and depth of field. nicely done. ~ illona

Thanks Illona! I used a Lensbaby Composer and wasn't sure I'd be able to nail the focus in the amount of time I was going to have so I set a shampoo bottle at the edge of the curtain to focus on ahead of time. I remembered where I'd been standing so I could run back to that spot once I'd placed him on the tub. A tripod would have been a good idea, and saved me some trouble, if I'd thought of it at the time. :) I was thrilled when it all came together.
