As for B&W tonality I like this picture very much. An even distribution of tones, no burned out high lights or clogged black shadows. It's like my preferences for bread - no sugar or syrup, no spectacular spices, just the good taste of pure wheat, rye, oat etc. Very good. Always nice to see a happy child too.
