Beautiful baby! I agree, that the toys should be removed, the background made to be solid, and I would even change the baby's nightie to a solid soft color, then the eye goes completely to that beautiful anghelic face.

A great baby photo. Technically it is all there. The softening of the outer edge enhances the lovely glow in his cheek. The peaceful serenity we all strive for. A wonderful presentation.

I can see why this is such a precious photo. Everything looks great! If those are his favorite toys when he was that age I would consider to leave them for memories. Thanks for the information!!

I don't know, I kind of like the toys, they cover space and with the softening they don't stand out too much. It would have been awesome if he was holding is head a little more straighter (something none of us have control of when we are sleeping lol) but it is a beautiful photo and is cropped and framed very nice.

Comment from Life is but a dream.


Oh no, toys add much to the story that this little child is loved surrounded by comfort. If you take out those toys you will end up with a cliche photo. I like the toys they add to the story element of your photo. Your soft focus around the toys shows the viewer that they are not all that important to the photo because the face of the child is sharp, wonderfully toned and nicely framed both by the toys and soft blur and a soft blue/gray frame. The frame is also a great idea holding the eye of the viewer in place. There are no hot spots, well textured, lovingly composed makes the viewer feel like they are peeking in on a precious sight, and he is. He looks so healthy, glowing. Full marks for a lovely capture and thank you for sharing your family with your FAR family.

Babies are always a great subject and your grandson sure is a cutie. Very peaceful shot, makes me want to tiptoe around and not wake him up. The image has a nice, soft feel to it too. Well done.
