-49

In some ways I felt I was looking at an old man when I looked at this portrait, who is not all that attractive.  And yet the inner beauty of this photo is sublime.  The smile engenders a smile in me that is definitely soul felt.  Well done!

You have captured a very precious moment in this photograph. The photograph is very well exposed, but my eye is drawn to the hand in the forefront- it is out of focus and distracting. I think the photograph would be more effective if the hand was cropped and thus my eye would have no where else to go but to the beautiful smile of the baby.

Thanks for sharing your work.
