This is extremely last minute. I know some people will hate the border and the film grain, but I want to keep my update button for the next week - I feel lost without it :)

Just to clarify, I added the film grain intentionally because I wanted to give the image an old B & W film feel. That was the purpose of the border too, but as [user]keegbow[/user]suggested, I'm now not sure it adds anything.
This was always going to polarize the voters, so I look forward to seeing the vote spread.

She walked!!! Now she's tottering around everywhere, hurting herself left, right and centre. I think that at this early walking stage we should wrap them up in cotton wool to protect them from everything.
Thanks everyone for the great comments.

well we spend all this time waiting for thier first word and step and then spend the next fifteen years telling them to dit down and be quiet.....I hope you get your Christmas wish.
Touching and simple, the caption says it all. The composition is dynamic, the lighting is good. The subject is just out of focus which lends itself to the fact she "isn't quite walking".
seems like this should be in sharper focus...a little to grainy...and remember for the next several years you will be telling her to sit down and stop wiggling...enjoy....
This is going to be on the front page, if not ribbon. Wondrous subject, excellent textures (tootsies, binky, quilty). Awesome in BW. If I were to be picky at all, I'd say that the light is just a teensie bit too even. Since this is advanced editing, I might have separated the feet from the blanket a bit more.
this is a great image and you have hit the challenge right on the head but I just can't see how this style of border adds anything positive to the image as a whole.
