This is my favorite shot. I love it. You must be a good father. And they are hard to find.

Definately makes me smile. Good shot, and focus is good as well. I wish that fuzzy animal wasn't right near your head. I find that a bit bothersome. Smooth pulling it off without waking the baby. :)
Lighting is really good for this shot. No distracting shadows or bright spots. We can see your face really well, and even the precious babys face.

Nice! I like it how all three of you have your eyes closed. The baby is beautiful! I like self-portraits that give an idea of what the person is like, and this one does.

Nice, but feels a bit snapshotty to me. Would like to see it zoomed in on your face and the baby, cut off just under your arms (no offense to the other kid!) because this has too much information in it, in my opinion.

I love this shot! It is perfect for showing me who you are. "A family man" You can't get any better then that. vote 10

Greetings,
Hmmm. One of the first things my eyes were drawn to is the shirt. Especially across your midsection. The lines look unnaturally even. maybe not the best shirt for this composition. A cute shot, but something aboutt he cropping here doesn't seem to sit right with me. It almost seems incomplete. If I was to nit-pick, I would say there is a slight smerk on your face (assuming you are the older gentlemen in the photo), but if you are like me, it would be hard to hold it in.

Hey, this looks like my husband's favourite position. Thanks for submitting this!

How sweet! Is your big boy actually, sleeping, though? He looks a little wiggly or giggly... What a lovely photo. And what a long timer you must have on your camera!

This feels warm. The expressions and posing of you and the boys are great. I would like to suggest the stylist details such as the couch shoud be tidy, props are not so neccessary eg. the doll and the cloths. Maybe you can try B/W to get rid of the un-unity colours. I hope I make sense here :-)

Cute photo and the baby on your chest is excellent. My observation is its a little busy. Im not very sure where to concentrate. I think this would have been a wonderfull photo if you had croped at the bottom of your right hand and just had a chest to head shot of you and that cute little baby ( I know you cant play favorites) oh and remove that little animal from in back of you head. Cute shot though be the little boy runs you around.
