Great shot. Ugly over-cooked post processing. It's a great shame that anxious photographers are turning to this cartoon pp.

Don't understand what Mal is talking about. Looks good to me. Of course, as you can tell by my posts, my standards are pretty low. Looks like a fine, fun, candid capture. I like it.

I am wondering what specific post-processing was done to the image to result in what Mald called "Ugly over-cooked post processing" and "cartoon"? To me, it does capture the moment, but in my humble opinion, it looks like a reasonably well-composed snaphot from a family album, with a wee bit more saturation than necessary. But, I am here to learn also.
