Here I tried to take a different type of family portrait - of our feet. That is me on the right:) But, what happened is me, "Mr Natural Light" did not want to use a flash and so I got four wiggle kids and slow shutter speeds and, anyhow, we had fun, but there is alot of noise in this image. I still like it, even for all of it's flaws.

I adjusted levels & contrast, more contrast, some burning around the edges, and used a warming filter in PS2.

Great composition! I'm gonna do one of those some day with all our feet. Oh and I like the wiggles!

What a fun shot! I like that little foot on upper left, it's small size is balanced by its high position.

this looks like a fun shoot, would it really be right if the youngins were perfectly still? I think it gives it personality. :)

Fun concept. I think the B&W treatment matches the subject well.

Frame it and put it on a wall, great family portrait:) The imperfections are what makes the shot, I'm sure no one was actually sitting still during this shot and it just adds to the feel that you were all probably laughing, joking and being a close family. Gotta love it!

I think it's flaws are what makes it so likeable. If perfectly focused with no noise, it would make a lovely stock shot. As is, it makes a lovely family portrait with a sense of life to it. I prefer the latter. From a purely critical review as opposed to emotional reaction, the upper left is a bit "off" compared to the rest of the photo in tone/color, and I'm not sure that has a positive contribution.

Very creative idea for a family portrait. It must have been fun shooting this one. I imagine a lot of giggling.

that is a great shot - quite creative and a treasure to show how they range in size...

Feet are such an interesting part of the body. I like how you have to hold the babies foot steady. hehehe..

Looking forward to seeing all of your right feet next week. :-) Great idea, nifty photo. However, top of photo is a little busy and detracts from the feet. Perhaps another blanket at the top would help.

That's a cute shot. I think a straight B&W would be far better than sepia in this case.

Awesome :)

This is about the essence and not techicalities. Very uniq image of a "family portrait". The little foot at the top is a nice touch.
