Too much shadow on the dolls face I think.

nice lighting potential, but turned out kind of grey and the little one's fingers look oddly sealed together...;-)

My gaze is drawn to the dolls face that is out of focus. Maybe use manual focus or pre-focus if your camera has these features.

Poorly exposed, focused, and lit. Were you trying to concele taht this was a doll?

So how many people have been suckered into believing it's a real baby? While the picture was loading, I was thinking, "The lighting is a little dark, but wow -- that baby looks perfect." Then I saw the hand, and thought, "Aha -- that's why it looks perfect." Like I said, the picture is a little dark. A simplified background would help, as would a different surface (more simple, perhaps lighter colored) for the "baby" to be resting on.
