Very evocative. Masterful use of b/w, and sharp as a blade, forget a tack! The only downside is the slightly odd expression on the baby's face, but this is one of those timeless images nonetheless. 8/10
life is so fragile...like this extremely cute baby...but so easily corrupted!!....like the hands doing the holding...excellent lighting, composition and focus...take care of this precious one!..8
This is lovely. It is very nicely lit and the composition is beautiful. The veiwers eye goes right to the baby's. The black and white was very well done. The subject is perfectly separated from the background. I kind of wish I could see the baby's feet but that is a nitpick. Beautiful.
This is one of the nicest tiny baby shots I have seen, maybe would have been nice to see the baby's feet,I like way you have used the hands, I love it 10
I said before I really like this. The hands and the lighting are well done. I wonder if tweaking the contrast on it might even enhance it more. Or perhaps playing with post editing filters? Keep it up. You're on the right track.
