Beautiful baby and excellent composition. Nice family photo. Not too sure about the glare between the couple.

So far, this is my favorite family picture. The lighting on this portrait is just beautiful, and so are the baby and the proud parents. I love this! 10

The tonality of this makes it seem to be a little flat for me. But I seldom pick the winner's on here.

Very Nice. There seems to be to much light on the mothers hands. I would have prefered to see them croped more, placing the baby lower to the corner of the shot. I think that would have put more accenuation on the families faces. Other then that this is really a nice photo. I gave a high mark.

Beautiful shot. My only negative comment would be that the lighting is a little harsh, resulting in some loss of DOF (maybe reducing the backlighting and increasing the contrast just a tad would help?). Still, I love the tones and composition. Very well done. 9

The pride in the father's face makes this picture. Just a pity that his face is a little out of focus.

This is my favorite shot of the challenge! I just zipped through them quickly, but this is far above the rest at communicating "Family" in a well shot photograph. Nice placement, great tones and sharp focus. 10 in a very difficult challenge.

What a beautiful family portrait. Lighting is perfect and well done. I like the de-saturated look.

Very nice tight crop. You could even lose more of the mother's hands and it would be ok. I like the shadowing of the mom and dad's face. I wish the baby's face had the same rich depth of tone.
