tiny fingers of a 4 day old baby

What a beautiful photo. Precious.

Thematically and compositionally, this is a winner. I happen to love "juxtaposition" shots like this. About the only thing that I would suggest to improve the image is a slight burning-in on the adult wrist area, reducing that highlight and allowing the infant's fist to "grab" the attention a little easier (sorry, couldn't resist). I do love this photograph, though; you've "captured" a wonderful moment.

I gotta hand it to you, you seem to have a grip on it. The black and white is well done. I like the different angle the hands meet. I like the idea that they are both left hands, almost like shaking hands. Probably the first hand shake this little gift has had. I like the balance but might suggest having a bit more black on the left to balance the black on the right, how ever the small hand is central. Great. jason
