 My youngest son in the hands of his father... I suspect this one is not going to score that high, to simple... But I am submitting it anyway because I think he is the most beautiful baby in the whole world - :o)

Love this lense - it is hard to focus if the light is low but the pictures are so nice IF they are in focus because of the low DOF.

I like the way the father's hands are around the baby's head, but I think the eyes have been saturated too much.

The soft PP treatment is very nice. Combined with your good composition and lighting this makes a great photo, and will be a lovely keepsake for the proud parents.

Nice "high key" image sort of thing. There are a few odd looking blotches on the baby that offer a bit of a distraction.
