@Manuela Photography: Yeh, the cleaning up was the least attactive thing but worth it.

He's cute! It's funny you left the spoon colored as it shows that the yogurt got everywhere BUT in the spoon =)

@purelysnow: The yoghurt went everywhere, but he (and I) had fun. After this photo he decided to lick it out of the bowl.....

Max is AWESOME!!!!!!! GREAT candid image with perfect tones! Too cool! Did you use some selective saturating on the spoon???

@Jerry: Thanks for your response, Max is a great little guy (as all moms would say about their son). I made a new layer, selected the spoon and deleted the rest. The other layer I made b&w. Don't know if that is the best way to do it, but it worked. I'm still learning all the photoshop tricks.

Oh wow. This takes me back to when my kids were like this. What a memory this photo will make. BTW I like the spoon. I creates another focus. The amazing thing is that it doesn't detract one bit from the subject or should I say 'that huge personality' you have captured.

@Helen: Thanks for your nice response. The spoon was my first attempt with this photoshop 'trick'. I thought it was funny in this picture.
