Good shot Eric. The highlights look blown on top of his head and it's looking a little soft which can no doubt be sorted in processing. Shooting in RAW format gives you best control over the highlights.

Not too harsh? :D

LOL. Well digital photography is a double whammy - you need to learn the processing too to get the best out of it.

I've just become the very proud owner of an EOS 400D:) The photo was taken with the kit lens. Don't worry I'm already lusting after various L series lenses:naughty:
