This is William's little brother and I'm sorry I don't know is name. He didn't tell me his name...he was asleep most of my visit!
Taken with Ambient light from the window, I added a soft focus, I'm surprised it even came out at all. My friend Katie is holding him!
You have a GREAT weekend!
Linda

Hi Linda - this is ann example of the moment being everything and technicals take a back seat.

This really is a picture to cherish, especially for the parents. The 'baby over the shoulder' shot is a classic and that squashed wee face would have to melt the heart of anyone who sees it!

Lovely baby shot and one I'd be tempted to try a b/w conversion on. Nice post.

Hi,Linda,
A wonderful shot of this newcomer in our world. He's so cute!
I wish him many happy glorious days.

Wonderful capture of this precious moment Linda!
Great light and composition of course as always,
but most of excellent timing!

Hi Linda,
He is so tender and touching in the abandonment of the sleep! Excellent soft focus and light. I agree with Richard, a B&W could be interesting! Bravo! Annie

Hi Linda,
Very good shot of this little one.The soft focus effect works well in my opinion.
Well done,
BEn

What a beautiful child. I love the fact that you didn't add BLUR or heavily post-processing it.
You did an excellent up-close crop and with the soft lighting.
Very well done Linda.
Thanks for sharing!
