So, are you saying he doesn't look so sweet when he's sleeping any more? LOL The vignette does a nice job of focusing attention on his sweet little face. Nice job.

I don't really know if it would win with that cleaner look. I think I like it better with these toys. Its more real; just like life. To clean photos look always unreal to me. The vignette gives a special look to these toys; as if the boy has taken them from reality into his dreams.

Baby's make great subjects. He looks like he's having a very peaceful sleep. I can understand why you like this image of your grandson. Good artist notes. Well done. Thanks for sharing.

What a beautiful baby. I like the way you took this so close up. I like the way you caught him sleeping like this. What a peaceful look. I like the way you did the edges. An excellent picture.

What an adorable little boy . Very nice composition.I like how the surrounding haziness who work in framing the boy facial enhancing his beutiful soft skin tones and making this area the center of interest . Good technical enhancement . And charming story telling . Good work !

A grandfather of twelve is never tired of seeing baby photo's and this one is adorable. I can see why you accented this little angle. Your composition is lovely.

Your grandson is incredibly beautiful. I love the rosy cheeks!

I think you are right about eliminating the toys, if you had it to shoot again, but they are a most a very minor distraction and of course at one level, they are entirely appropriate.

The slight softening works very well, it is a baby after all. As does the vignette and frame.

Wonderful portrait!

it is a nice photo.

without the blurred effect though, it would just be "another photo" of a child. the framing has helped to make it stand out a little more
