In memory of my daughter who was born weighing less than a pound and only lived for 10 days. In honor of her twin brother whom she’s watching over while he grows in the NICU.
Shot in raw converted in CS.

I couldn't bring myself to vote on this image. Its too emotive to make a flippant gesture of voting. However, it effected me and I was keen to return to the image and read the notes following votes closing.
I am a nurse who has worked in operating theatres for years and seen many a premature baby delivered. I have frequently been truly astounded by the amazing stories of survival these incredible little people achieve. Keep that in mind while your little boy grows stronger and has bad days, too.
Thanks for all the comments and condolences. This picture was done the day I recieved her "Death Certificate" and this was probably the first time I can actually say I shot what I was truely feeling. I did not expect it to do as well as it did considering the lighting and the bad raw conversion.
This is actually my first entry and I hope my future entries to be less heavy-hearted!
I expected this picture upper in the final list. Is a very strong picture and left me thinking, and impressed, and with tears in my eyes. It might not be the most technical picture, but I'm sure it is the most expressive. Gave it a hard 10.
This is very sad - I am sure that there are flwas in the photo, but it speaks to me - It makes me think of my daughter - Makes me think of all the wonders this little angel will never know.
My thoughts to the parents of this baby.
As a parent who's had a child in intensive care let me tell you that my heart goes out to you. With that said this is a powerful image that hits me deep in my heart and brings a tear to this guys eye.
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
