Oh, how sweet is that?! Wonderful moment to capture, and the DOF lends just the right balance of softness and detail.

Nice capture! The baby and mommy scene is always heart warming :)
The picture might do better with a boost in saturation - right now, the green reflections look washed out. I'd also crop it differently to move the red eye as much away from the center as possible, because that's where my attention is drawn to in the first instance.

LOVE the little foot dangling off the side.

Aww, how sweet! I love the shallow DOF used to isolate your subjects, and that you got both eyes with wee little catchlights. So cute!
