First granddaughter and doting Grandad, by c22shooter

c22shooter has produced a family photo that not only radiates happiness, but it's far from a stereotypical family snap. Let's start with the lighting. It's predominantly dark, but the key facial contours of the toddler and her grandfather are subtly illuminated, giving an added dimension. The pose of the grand daughter, standing tall next to her grandfather, is also a strength of the composition. But overall, this is all about happiness and with that regard it's a big success.

Would you like one of your pictures featured on DPNow's POTD?

We are always on the look out for great pictures posted to the user-galleries here on DPNow. POTDs are selected from the gallery and featured every week day. The gallery facility here is completely free; all you need to do is register as a user on our discussion forum and you will get an automatic 25MB of space, which is good for around 125 pictures uploaded at web resolution, about 200K per picture. At the time of writing we had almost 16,000 pictures on the galleries and it's well worth a browse.

The DPNow Golden Gallery

Our ultimate accolade, the DPNow Golden Gallery, is reserved for what we feel are the very finest images. We invite anyone to submit their pictures for inclusion in the Golden Gallery. Why not have a look at the Golden Gallery submission form? The vast majority are usually rejected, which is why we feel that the ones we do feature are extra special.
