 "Bring Your Own Baby".. Or, sometimes known as bring your own beer if you're having a party.. :-). I know, I know.. Everyone HATES pictures of people's kids. But, I want to learn how to make these types of images better, so I am going to enter them when I can for the feedback.. Besides, changing "beer" to "baby" is totally appropriate and reflects the changes in my life. I thought it was fun.

Yes, I meant for this to show soft focus. His arms wouldn't stay still and with out the soft focus, you could really see the motion blur.

hard to see where he/she is going to keep that bottle, nice soft focus but it kinda looks more like blur around the eyes. good luck

What a beautiful child. I wish the focus had been a bit better (unless you were going for soft focus) and the baby could have been holding it's bottle of milk (which is probably easier said than done ;-)

The faded edges are mute with the stark DPC border. I like the light behind the baby's hair and ear and the blurred left shoulder. The lighting on the face seems stark and there is no crispness to the face. Your use of acronym is clear to me.
