This is my newborn son, Aiden. He wasn't even a full three days old when this was taken. He's laying in my arm as I type this, listening to a string quartet covering Taking Back Sunday because he won't lay in his bassinet to sleep...he's still perfect though.
Photoshop was convert from RAW, levels, curves, selective color to whiten the whites of his eyes (little jaundice), b & w, dodge and burn shadows, convert to grayscale, convert to quadtone, levels, curves, smooth some rough spots, usm, resize, save for web.
I've decided to do a photo-a-week book for him over the year. I think it will be nice to look back on... |

| Nice focus on the eyes, but the crop is a bit too tight for me. |
