My 22 month old daughter and my wife are the beautiful models before your eyes. Olivia is soon to be a big sister and she daily inquires about the baby in the tummy. I asked her if should could kiss mommy's belly for a picture, she scream in joy and was ready before I had the camera in my hands.

You know what? How can 24 people score this less than a 5?

Lovely picture, subjects and execution.

Greetings from the Critique Club...

I was not able to vote on this challenge, but if I had, I probably would have given you a 6.

My first reaction is that this photograph is well done. The exposure is great, the framing is perfect, and the contrast between the black background and the colours in the image work well. The image also has the "cuteness factor". There is another image in this challenge that is similar; it is of a woman's chest and a very young child. I think that image faired better because the co-relation between the womb and a baby was a little closer in time. This is an awesome photograph to have and be able to look back on. Great work.

If you need any clarification on any of my comments, please feel free to pm me. It might take some time for me to get back to you.

Not my kind of photo but it is a perfect photo. I'd rate it at ten if not for those white spots on the left hand side. As is: 9

Cute idea. Too bad its a little OOF. I would've like to have seen this cropped a little closer to the subjects. and without the bandaid on the finger.

wow, this is great. Very creative idea. I love how you even used maternity books for her to stand on. I know it sucks that you have two whote spots near the bottom, but whatever. The picture is great. Perfect lighting, great setup, and very creative idea.
