Perfect dof here, and it's so cool that the baby is looking right at you. Love the black and white.

True maternal instinct IMO would have the baby suckling a real breast.

I do like the (almost) square format of this photo, combined with the B&W it reminds me of the good old medium format days. The only improvement I could think of would be to have wiped off the baby's mouth first. :) Great job.

I love how sharp the baby's eyes are here. B/W works great here. Nicely done.

This is so heartwarming. There are other similar compositions in this challenge, but this one has the most natural - least soft-focus / neatimage of them all, and therefore I like this one best. I love the way the baby is staring right at the camera, blowing those spit bubbles, and smiling :-) The tones (technical and emotional) are perfect in every way.

Ahhhhh...cute shot. Love the lighting, dof and b&w treatment. Possibly could've been improved by taking the shot more from camera left and making the "mother" a stonger element in the composition. Still very nice imagery and sure to do well.

Beautiful image. Likely a top ten finisher due to the "polished" look and post processing skill applied. It's always hard to get them to comply, but of course I think this would be mildly better without the slobber. Mine won't keep her mouth dry for 2 seconds though, so I know how it is. My only other suggestion would be to maybe have a little more room to the left of the baby's face. As it is, he or she seems a little crowded into the frame. The cropping of mother's face is, to me, well done and needs no work. Great shot that will likely net you a 6+.

This photo is fantastic. You couldn't as for a better timed shot and I'm sure this will be framed in your house! I really like the shallow depth of field you've used and the framing is spot on. Great stuff!

I"m not normally into b+w, least of all for baby (and flower) shots, but this looks great. My only complaint is that for THIS CHALLENGE, there should be a bit more emphasis on the mother. Lovely photo, gave you a 9.

Really sweet. I think I'd "de-bubble" a bit of the baby's drool though. HEE HEE - cute baby - love the clear sparkle in the eyes. Nicely focused.
