Description

....until tomorrow.
f5.6; 1/250 sec; Used softbox and no flash. No alterations. I had just nursed Jack to sleep, and then realized that he needed a diaper change--ugh! Well, he snored right through the diaper change, so I thought: what a great opportunity for some "sleepy" shots. Got several, and he even transferred soundly into his crib....aaahh, life is good.

This is BREATHTAKING!!! I can't find the right words to tell you how beautiful this is! Just love the lighting, the sharpness of the subject, the DOF and the sweet baby face! Great job! #1059241

Excellent capture! I love the sharpness and the colour! His lips are curled like a bow and the way his arm is laying-- just like a storybook tale!

Well done! #1061301

Thank you, Ellen, Susana and Heidi. I really appreciate your nice compliments. I took several during this "sleepy" shoot, and this was my fav. Heidi, I laughed when I read your comment about the lips being curled like a "bow"....I have an aunt who has said since Jack's birth, that he has a mouth shaped like a bow. I will let her know she's not the only one to think so...LOL. #1061316
