The last image is my favourite. I love that he is looking up, the positioning and obviously how his fringe (although it doesn't look very 'jagged' in this photo) is the main event, along with his eyes. And his monobrow (which also relates to child innocence, because he didn't and doesn't care that I was taking a close-up photo of his monobrow, suggesting he has little sense of self consciousness). I think the photo gives enough, but not too much.
In terms of equipment, I am using a Canon 40D with a Canon 50mm f/1.8 lens. This particular lens enables me to get the close-up photos I want, whilst creating a good depth of field, so that I can adjust the focus. All photos are taken handheld, as I don't think a tripod would help in this case due to the motion of my subject, therefore I have to shoot in good light (which is all natural). I think artificial light would juxtapose the 'innocent' aspect to my project - innocence is related to pureness, natural, etc., so I believe using natural light feels 'right'.
