I was going to try some more Rembrandt lighting. However boy picked this macro filter up and so this is the result. I like all of the circles in this image contrasted against the line of the chair back. I have another much less flattering one which I will save for another day.

I love this - I was trying to wrangle my grandson into posing with a magnifying glass, but you beat me to it. Lovely contrast in the black and white. Also LOVE his serious expression. FAV

@jancb Thank you Jan - I have another that made us laugh a lot - Not so serious. This one got the vote from the family though.
