Nice picture. As I said in another thread, though the camera made a lot of the decisions, I really like the resulting depth of field that leaves the salt grass in the left background so soft. Now that I look at it, the salt grass to the right also starts to get soft. Did you apply any PP beyond simple B&W conversion?

Overall a great effect and a very nice conversion indeed. Expressions are great, and they are both beautiful children.

Oh I am so busted... Thanks so much for the positive comments...
I did do some blur on some of the grass. I thought it gave it some depth that it was lacking. I am brand new to the PP blurry thing and may have cheesed it up a bit, but I still love how it turned out. Finally downloaded picassa... Maybe soon a new comp and a real PP program, but I have been saying that for 2 years...
