From a shoot on Tuesday, I much preferred the B&W of this one. Comments welcomed:

Nice baby photo Geoff, but the nose and chin of the mother (?) is a bit distracting for me. I would be inclined to crop and clone any remaining bit.

Thanks Phill,
Appreciate the feedback. I decided to keep the chin/nose/partial face of Mum to create a sensation of unity here. I didn't think it distracted negatively.

Hmmm ... so it's positively distracting?


I think clone out the kid.

You would

I think it's a great image - to me it says "I have mum wrapped around my finger". The kid certainly has a mischevious look about him.

I think mum in shot works, but wonder if a vignette blur to soften the edges might keep the eye on the baby more (or it might look like crap)

I like it.
