Thanks Trish... I didn't even notice the shadow on her chest! Always helps to have more pairs of eyes looking at stuff!
Cheers

I love the softness and low contrast in her face (as in the previous one), but I have to say I'm not crazy about the pink - but then, I'm a guy :)
Maybe it's just that there's too much of it? For my taste maybe a tighter crop with the pink mesh just around the edges as a gentle frame would work better.
And make it burlap! (just kidding!)

If could change the setup here, I wonder if pushing the foreground gauzy material to the side to avoid having it obscure the face at all and not have the defocused foreground? It is a fine looking baby and I do like the idea of the natural frame.

Well, I like the pink, but that's probably because I'm a girly girl. :P Your ability to colour B&W amazes me . . . I studied the baby's skin for awhile, wondering if it could have more or less colour, or perhaps colour in more concentrated areas (the cheeks, for example). But in the end, I think it's quite alright as is.
About the gauze, I certainly like it more than the floweryobjectthingie. I think the foreground gauze in the bottom right hand corner could probably go, but it's so light and soft that it doesn't distract too much. My biggest issue with it (and this is less an objective, technical comment as it is a personal "thing" with me) is the texture. It appears a bit rough to me . . . although I admit it makes an interesting contrast. Still, I keep thinking "Loofah Baby!". Perhaps play with softening or even smudging a bit if you're feeling experimental.
I really like how, when you have a subject, whether it be puppies or babies (or ducks!), you use all kinds of props . . . it produces some really great results!

Although I never was one for baby pics, now that our kids have mostly grown I seem to like these more. Maybe it's time for grandchildren, already . Life seems to be moving a little too fast....
Live the moment.

Hi Kim, I was thinking of you today, thinking of days gone by. You did a wonderful job on this photo. So delicate with the details, what a soft,tender story! Hope all is going well for you.
