Here is a little more info:This photo was taken a couple days ago of my newborn son. He is one week old today. This is the first smile of his that I have captured on film. Thanks for taking the time to view my picture, I welcome any and all comments.

I don't know how I missed this wonderful shot . . .it's just precious!!!I love the lighting and how his little face is darker without the stripes of light across it. Was this altered or did you shoot it like that? #186625

Thanks Roseann! The photo is unaltered. I have a sliding glass door with vertical blinds in my living room and the afternoon light is wonderful. Thanks for taking the time to view and comment on this shot, I appreciate it! #186904Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
