    Tiny toes
    Couldn't resist taking this one.

    This is SOOC.

    I usually shoot in manual but want to see how I did using AV and TV mode. I don't like the slow shutter in AV. It's ok for sleeping babies I suppose.

    Canon EOS 350D, 50mm 1.8 lens, TV mode, SS 1/100, ISO 400, Bounced flash

    You got the nice depth of field happening there but perhaps if you got more of the baby in the frame and moving your position a few degrees to your the right - the foot and toes kind of look out of place there to me

    I knew someone would say that :) those were my thoughts too.
    I couldn't move to my right more because there is a wall there :(
    And I couldn't move her, she would've woken up.
    Why can't these babies fall asleep in more convenient places LOL.
    Here's a birds eye view of her.

    Very interesting perspective. I like the selective DOF you choose for this image. Babies feet and hands are a favorite subject of mine and you pull this one off. On the negative side, the woodwork by the head is distracting to me, but than again it's hard to dictate where shots like this will present themselves.

    Nice shots both. Looks like she was exploring and just konked out.
