NEW PHOTOS DOWN BELOW COMMENTS

Well, I just did it. Put up the first photo in the entry gallery... Yesterday I did a newborn shoot of my granddaughter who came home from the hospital at 9 days old...I didn't look at the challenge, had edited this shot, and then decided I probably wouldn't find a better one...so in it goes. (With the right to change my mind, of course!!!)

Cross ONE thing off my to-do list... can't wait to see everyone else's entries..

    Well, after editing the entire session, I also came up with these images... What say you? Leave the first up or one of these others....

    Version two (processing a bit different)

    Thank you all for the well wishes! Layla is home and as of yesterday, 100% wireless!! (Having nothing to do with the contest, but in case you can't get enough of Layla Fayth, here is the link to her newborn session...the photos that we agreed would be 'public'....the rest of the gallery is family only...http://smu.gs/r0XOlP )

    I think I like version 2 of the original shot best. I like the way the processing (as well as the composition) focuses our attention on Layla. That's great news about her being home *and* wireless!

    Thanks, Sapphire! I thought the first version looked a bit burnt after finishing up the session.... I will see what others say about the other compositions, both of which I like ....but I think my first intuition is going to stick...
