I couldn't make the milk heat up any faster, so I decided I might as well catch the moment for posterity.

Thanks to everyone who offered feedback and enjoyed the photo. If you didn't like the shot, you are in good company - Katie's grandmother thought that it was simply dreadful (ironic, since she is a staunch advocate of put the baby in a crib and let them cry themselves to sleep). If you'd like to see her in a happier mood (usually), you can check her out at //www.chai-mulkerin.com/KatieIndex.htm. And yes, she was calm as a foggy morning about two minutes later - the miracle of the bottle.

Excellent deep grays and absolute blacks really bring the photo to life.

This reminds me of my two year old grandson! It is a good picture that really puts across a mood, it is well focused and compsed. To me, though, it just doesn't seem meant to be black and white.

And it's just the start of the day. I love how little kids get fully invested into whatever emotion is passing over them at the time. I bet she/he was as calm as a foggy morning in about 5 minutes. Good photo.

I like the light/shadow balance on the face. Good focus too.

Lovely title. Nicely saved photo shoot session. Don't you hate it when your model packs a sad over remuneration terms?! :)

The lighting is soft, yet focus sharp. Contrast and shade range very good. Not too bright allowing the teeth to say their two cents worth. I like it. 9. Good luck!
