First time trying these types of shots, newborns are tough. Your thoughts?

    I'm not a newborn shooter but... I love the last one lol. The first six are nifty and regular but the last one needs a caption like "OMG I'm naked!!"

    Nice shots. My favs are #1 and #7. But #3 should be captioned "Where pickles come from". :D

    Very cute photos, but the first few are definitely too soft for me (looks like you did a lot of cloning?). As for the last one ... seen that shot many times, and boy do I know it's a hard one to get, BUT it does look nicer if the baby is all sleepy & relaxed :D

    Nice first try!! The first ones are sweet & cuddly as can be! :)

    Very sweet. I'm guessing (a lot of) the softness came from the apertures chosen and the very close range.

    Pretty darn good for your first time! Not bad at all, you made it look easy.

    My nit is that some seem over saturated for my taste, and a tad soft. A few the face seems softer than other areas..if I have that issue sometimes I just sharpen the eyelids a tiny bit. Wonder how these would look in b&w?

    I think the first image is just beautiful. I suspect that is the way baby sleeps in mommy's tummy.

    I love #2 iloveyou.gif, it's unique in my viewing experience. It made me chuckle out loud!

    The others are a little more derivative, but good examples of the idea. I don't like the close-ups so much. I think the "niche" is a little too blocked and contrasting in all.
