A superb capture of a very cute model. However, the technical side let's it down a little, it needs more contrast and the colour balance could do with some work?

Cute kid but there is a STRONG blue cast to this picture which can easily be corrected.

It's very... blue. Since it's advanced editing, that's not a huge deal to change unless you're somewhere without software. Also, even though it's a portrait, more negative space would help here. The crop is a little close, so it looks like anyone's baby picture more than artistic photography.

Cute pose and face. If he's yours, congratulations on such a sweetheart - he at least looks the part.

He's adorable. I love when babies have those big open smiles! And his hands holding! So cute. The image though is really dark and flat and the angle is a little odd.

Great expression. Seems a bit bluish. Maybe adjusting white balance OR warming it up a bit would make it seem a bit better.

This needs to have a little better focus for starters as it is a little soft. There is also a definite blue cast which needs to be corrected.

The color cast in this photo is off, the skin looks blue. Maybe your white balance was not set properly?
