Okay, I will take a stab at this one. With all the kids we have it should be pretty simple to tell but ???

I will say six months!

What is the prize for the winner?

kidzmom · December 9, 2009

Rhondavid....Six months you say? Nope....kinda cold. Keep guessing!!!!:D And the winner gets......Drumroll please....A big CONGRATS from yours truly!

And I'm all ears for CC on these too. I'm putting together a book for his first birthday with all of my favorites. I didn't get too many comments for the shots I posted a few days ago...Just culling through the photos to get the best of the best and trying to enhance them for the book with some PP. Never easy when you have a gazillion photos, lol!

Also curious about likes/dislikes for the processing style in 2.

THANKS you all!

My favourite is number 1. I lke the B&W and I like, what seems to be, the little smirk on his face. He seems very peaceful. Number 3 is very nice also, but because of the way he is sleeping, the mouth seems a bit awkward to me. My two cents! Nice job!

Joe

PS. I'm going to guess 10 days old.

kidzmom · December 9, 2009

Thanks Joe. I like #1 the best too, so that will probabally get a whole page....Thanks for the age guess too...this is FUN for me

MORE guesses from you all plz!

Ditto on #1. The expression is priceless and those eyelashes are amazing!

8 weeks?

Flyinggina · December 9, 2009

Adorable little boy. I, too, like #1 the best. That said, I also like the treatment in #2. It works for the baby and it also tames the blanket/throw in the background so it doesn't distract from his adorable face.

I think that adbsicom is pretty close. I'm going to guess 1 month.

I have to agree that #1 is just adorable! My guess would be somewhere between a week and a half to 2 weeks old.

I think everyone that is guessing a lot older is basing their guess on the apparent size of the baby. The recent photos posted are close-ups, and the baby appears to be much larger. If you look at her previous thread

(3 days ago), she stated that the baby was somewhere between 5 to 10 days old.

Such a beautiful set. Awesome work! 6 weeks old!

Agnieszka · December 9, 2009

I agree, adorable photos

I'll go with 3 months

anonymouscuban · December 9, 2009

I really love #1. Such a great shot of a cute baby.

If Gary is correct and he is only a couple weeks old, that kid is a monster. What are they feeding that kid?

toddb · December 9, 2009

2 weeks
Not really sure on age, but I know I like the set. Love #1 -- great capture of those eyelashes and the treatment works really well. Also like what you did in 2.

I love the softness and sweetness the photo gives off. I'm going older and going to say 1 yr.

sweet caroline · December 9, 2009

I'm still considering my guess, but it's not a newborn. The photos in the other post are from when the child was newborn 10 months ago, assuming this is the same child.

HEY all!
Thanks for the comments. #1 seems to be very popular. I posted on my photostream and it got placed in a gallery for the world's best photos!

! I'll take any encouragment I can get

I did like that capture personally. And so....the winner is....well no one. It was taken 2 days ago so he is 10 months

I emailed this photo to my husband as I do with photos that I'm working on...and he thought it was from last winter when he was a month or so old! I think when they are asleep babies ALL look the same age...no hair, chubby cheeks, peaceful. This little boy had a round face from day 1 so that is why Dad thought he was so young too... BUT I think the dead giveaway is the eyelashes. Newborns and very young babies don't have eyelashes visible...and certainly not this thick. With closeups it is extrememly hard to tell the age. The teeny bodies even look big if there isn't a frame of reference---like a parent's hand etc. I'll be posting some more for his book soon for CC...looks like #1 will be in there for sure. THANKS for making this fun
