My oldest son Frederik was told to stay in the other night....

 

That did NOT suit the young man

Marie-Louise, excellent capture. Is he 17 (the age of all dangers)?

Andy & Martin

 

Thank you for taking time for look and reflect...

 

Fred is indeed 17 years of age. 2nd year of high school and king of the world...

 

He didn't do anything in particular. We just hadn't seen him in ages.

 

Actually, he's normally a friendly creature.....

 

All the best

He then looks at me with one of those smiles and... !

 

 

Marie-Louise,

 

That particular mood is excellently captured.

Marie-Louise -

 

Though I can't read the story in his expression (I suspect he does a fair poker face) the framing, moment, contrast and tonal range are all first rate.

Ivan and Stuart,

 

Thank you !

 

Stuart, the boy simply ignored my presence, my camera, my whole existence....

 

There's your poker face all right...

 

All the best

Great moment and expression. I remember that expression and feeling--I was 17 once.

Something to look forward to... My sons are 13 and 11...

Virgil & Frans,

 

Thank you for looking !

 

I all honesty I thought I'd give all of you who have kindly participated this thread a version of our Fred in a much better mood as well...

 

(Still not too happy about having a picture taken by Mum... )

 

All the best
