Looks a little more like W. Eugene Smith than St. Ansel, but a FINE photograph!

Pay attention to your levels before desaturating. The face in the foreground needs to show up more. Thanks for a unique image in this challenge.

Nice B+W photo, but I'm not sure this met the challenge.

This is remarkably nice, and a brave entry given the topic. The image looks very much like something AA would have done. It is unfortunate that the face is not in focus. A strong entry in my eyes, nevertheless.

while technicaly a great image I found a few aspect I didn't care for in the shot. The largets being the selective desatration. While I am a huge fan of the style, I feel that choosing the pacifier as the object of intrest was not the best choice. Such a soft baby in a heartining seen with its mother. Then theres this huge pink pacifier leaping out at you. I think that the blanket or perhaps the baby would have been better choices for leaving color. Othe rhtan that the lighting is good the focus is great. The scene works well and dosn't feel like a snapshot. Other than the pacifier I would have to say this is a great shot....

Very cute. I don't think the selective desat was necessary. Also that hand in the upper right is a little distracting.

what a precious moment to capture. i'm usually not a fan of selective desat, though, unless it is something that subtly adds to the image. here, though, i think you could have done just as well without it. good luck!

I think the selective desaturation is detracting here. How does leaving the pacifier in color add to the image?

I'm generally not a big fan of the selective desaturation photos. Not only are they done too much, but, more importantly, they are often misemployed. In this case, leaving the paci in color draws the eye away from the beautiful child and the beamer mother, and straight to the splash of pink. This would be a far better photo in straight B&W.
