Even with my bad eye, I have to make an exception and comment on this image just a bit further. I think an injustice has been done. This image deserved a higher placing not only on the superb lighting but the sheer force of the subject matter. I understand the reticence about voters dismissing baby pictures, but the baby here, a very cute one, is merely sharing the billing. Yet look at his little hand! The Godfathers pose and expression are indeed in the classic mode. I do believe that the voters missed the delivery. This goes into my favs and keep up the good work.

I love this picture for so many reasons... First the humor. The concept is very funny. The Godfather's expression is both funny but still looks like a "wiseguy". The baby's expression is great too. Looks like a little tough kid. Plus I wonder how much people noticed the baby's right hand gesture, it looks like he's pointing a gun... Anyways, it's a shame it didn't end up one of the top three. Great work!

This one will be a priceless treasured family photo. What a great angle and how can you miss with those chubby cheeks (Either set). The dark shadow on the left of the face would be a bit much for any other purpose, but for this shot it is perfect. 10.

The expressions on this man's face along with the somewhat trepidous look to the baby's are great. Good job.

Good job! That baby looks like someone not to be reckoned with... and the Godfather has the most adorable expression. The rose is a good touch.

both expressions are great. I see one as intense and the other as 'oh my'.
