Nice capture! Focus, composition and lighting bring the eyes of the baby to one's attention, not the teeth.

Grandma would have never used a word processor to jot down her recipe! ;)

Peeking

Cool idea, wonderful focus, nice textures and colors! The bright spot on the "nose" detracts a bit. I don't like the border - although I think it does work.

The focus is nice, but the composition looks a bit unbalanced (I cannot explain it better, sorry).

The Data Inside

Adorable concept! Focus looks good, but it's not easy to judge. The image looks a bit underexposed.

I like the idea and the composition. I would have liked a deeper DoF, or maybe a similar DoF but focus on the tip of the key (which appears to have an interesting texture itself).

Cool metaphor of Dawkins's work!!

Naked Branches

Comment:
Probably an off-center composition with some negative space would have stressed the "nakedness" of the tree a bit more effectively.

Locked in

I want to thank everybody for the many comments I received. I had the idea for this shot while I was taking a shower (doh!), 20 minutes before the challenge submission deadline. I took 7-8 photos, changing light, position of the hand and so on. It was funny because I was alone and had to start the timer, actually lock myself inside the shower box, remove the marks I used as a reference on the glass, position the hand - and then start over. :) The shot I submitted was taken with a neon lamp inside the shower box. The shower box itself provided the orange tone, which I subsequently enhanced because I liked the "alarmed" mood it gave to the picture. I tried also blue tones and b&w, but it didn't really work (imho).
