    Peekaboo

    A couple more of the baby...I know the one with just his eyes is lacking sharpness, but I actually prefer it to the brighter one. Hopefully it won't be too dark here...

    Yes, the darkness is a problem plus I don't like how the fur looks like it is tickling (or worse-going up into) his nose. So the brighter image looks like a better shot to me but I do think that the "idea" of the eye shot is much better and is well worth re-doing.

    Both are very cute shots. I think the second one has more potential. Lack of sharpness doesn't bother me, but it is a little too dark on my monitor. I think this one would be an excellent B&W, with the eyes brightened up a little. Just my 2 cents.

    Nice to see you back, hope all the family are well.

    Wonderful baby shots. I really like both but the bottom one is lovely shame the eyes aren't a bit clearer.

    Frog, MB1, Paul & Roger...

    Thanks for your comments here.

    MB1, I'll definitely try the bottom one again, and I see what you mean about the blanket & his nose.
    Paul...I'll see how this looks in b&w...honestly, I hadn't even considered the idea, because I really love the red & white, but we'll see what it looks like! Thanks for the idea.
    Roger...thanks. The family is doing very well...and they're all growing up way too fast.
    Hopefully I can get these shots again, with a little more clarity.

    Emily
