My brother's baby was just born and I took a few pictures. I usually don't submit these types of pictures, but the baby is delicate and it seemed to make sense.

GREETINGS FROM THE CRITIQUE CLUB

It is easy to see why you submitted this ultra-charming image of your newborn nephew.

It didn't score very well, but what the heck, he's had his Internet debut and lots of people enjoyed looking at his image.

A couple of suggestions: First, have you flipped this image horizontally? try it and see if the little guy doesn't just start winking at you. Just a thought: since we tend to look left to right, often people put the primary subject to the left.

While you obviously have to compensate for the situation and lighting available, this image taken at a very shallow depth of field is quite soft. Sure it fits the dynamics of the moment, still a little more sharpness would make this even more appealing.

I wish you continued good luck capturing special moments with this delightful young subject. And look forward to seeing more of your work on DPC.

:-))

I find this shot a little soft, nice tones though.
