I haven't figured out why I like this picture of Damien Farnham. In some sense it it is classical head shot in terms of composition but then again not. It was taken while I was fooling around with my camera as he was working on his laptop. The light of the display brightens his expression of mirth which captures Damien's nature. Also it feels more natural since he isn't staring into the camera. The graininess (caused by taking the picture at a high ISO) also seems to enhance the picture.


Photo of a lion cub was taken at the Wild Animal Park park in San Diego. The picture was taken with a Nikon D300 and Nikkor 18-200mm AF VR lens. Minor cropping was done to improve the composition slightly and the colors were sharpened a bit.
