Spaghetti and Freckles

Devon, after a demanding battle with a plate of spaghetti bolognese one Saturday lunchtime:

Nikon D300, Nikon 50mm f1.8 prime lens, 1/125 at f 4, ISO 500, hand held no flash. He’s probably going to hate his freckles as he gets older, but they make him incredibly photogenic. The spaghetti sauce on his shirt front matched his hair. I tried to show him the fork-circularmotion-spoon technique, but he quickly lost patience with it. Venue: Ask Italian restaurant in Stamford, Lincs, our home town. I worked hard on this one in Lightroom – vignette, colours, exposure – and I think it really shows. Happy with this picture.
