Very cute!!
I love how you have Thomas filling the frame, and who could possibly resist that grin!
The colours are great, and the dark background really makes him the star of the show!
Lighting and DOF is perfect!
Good luck in the contest!
Robin :o)

Who could not like this smile. Angle and focus are well done. Might be a bit in the higher end of exposure. Some detail is being lost towards the forehead and hat area. Nevertheless a very nice photo. John

Wow, what a great Christmas Day Smiley Face. I had thought the topic sounded a little odd, but this is certainly a beautiful Christmas Smiley Face! Very crisp with good colors and isolation. It looks like you blasted this kid with a powerful flash...I hope he didn't mind. I ordinarily don't like flashes much, but this gave you very good contrast isolation, and there are no red eyes or irritating reflections. Framing and angle are very good. The boys expression takes the cake :)
