My sister's new baby

[ZL4life]

This is another 35mm shot that I developed in the dark room. It's my sister's week old baby Megan. I had other shots that were "cute". you could see her eyes and she was smiling as big of a smile that a week old baby can. but I like this one the best because it looks like she tired of the camera, she hiding from it. I used shallow DOF to try to show that a little more.
In reality i think she was just streaching, but this is more interesting.
So what do you thnk?

Precious baby! But I'm not sure. I tend to want a shallower depth of field so that the hands stand out more. Maybe with more distance I would like this better as is, but given how close you framed it, it's what I think I want to see.

I agree. More background blur here would be nice. Maybe you can add it in post?

Anyway, I like the composition. Open eyes and color would have been nice to see. Thanks for sharing.
