Pretty baby, but the selective desat makes this a bit creepy (probably not your intention).

Those are defiantly some blue eyes. Nice smile

Interesting use of selective desat, I think it would look great in color, her skin is already so light but having a little color in there would give it more life I think.

Beautiful blue eyes. Family of Frank Sinatra?

I think this would be SO much better without the selective desaturation.
Post actions
great capture - keep up the good work
Post actions
I know you changed this to B&W but her skin tone looks "shallow"...might you have done more in Curves/levels to richen up her tone??? I do not know for sure
Post actions
hm bit grey (so its flat) those eyes could be brighter (or the whole picture) and those selective colours in this version didnt help it
Post actions
selective color just misses the mark needed more detail and sharpness in the eyes to make that blue pop
Post actions
Don't assume that because you have an affinity for your subject, the rest of the world will too. Otherwise, a good workmanlike photo.

Beautiful baby... though I dont like the selective colouring here.
Post actions
brave attempt at a selective desat. I do not think this will be scoring well right now. anyway some of my recommendations are (keeping with the selective desat strategy)
Post actions
Not sure I'm feelin the selective desat here and I wish the details in the eyes were more prominent.
Post actions
the whites of the eyes should not be blue imo
Post actions
Very sweet. Would like to see it a little bit brighter.

Beautiful baby and blue eyes. Love the expression. Focus just a little off and a little more contrast probably would have made this a really good photo

The selective desaturation does not enhance this shot :(

I wonder what she's thinking? Maybe - I wonder you're doing with that black box thingy.

Cute portrait with nice eyes.
Post actions
The selective saturation of the eyes is really not to my tastes - gives the baby a "Midwich Cuckoo" type feel which I find rather creepy.
Post actions
Nice snapshot, IMHO the selective desaturation isn't the best choice.
Post actions
careful with the saturation- the white of her eyes is also blue.

I know what this is-- T R O U B L E. ;)

nice job with the desaturation

Good pic and idea with the eyes in color.
Post actions
Good idea with the selective desaturation. Direct flash tends to make photos look flat.
Post actions
Good use of selective desat.
Post actions
Beautiful bub! For this type of shot I think the eyes would give more impact if they were a bit brighter blue.
Post actions
eyes are too overprocessed for my liking and the background distracts me
Post actions
the selective desat doesnt do anything to help
Post actions
nice portrait, but i don't really like the selective desaturation.
