I love this image, I'm not a big fan of the grain however.

Nice photo, I like blown out bright high key shots but this one just errs on the "too much" side.

I think a dark background would have worked better here

Great expression on the baby. I'm not sure whether laughter or spitting up is next. The brightness/contrast is very high. The teeth kind of disappear in the front and the whole image is quite grainy.

This is awesome! What a beautiful capture. Looks just like one of those Hallmark greeting cards :)
