Sorry John I'm not seeing a photo, could you try attaching it again or posting the flickr link again?

And welcome to the forum! I'm new too and have loved the advice and comments so far. It's nice to have a place like this where people with so much talent and experience can help you improve your own technique! =)

Superb shot.. just amazing.. I like the fact that that you capture the shot from the eye level of the baby.. It conveys their world from the eyes of a baby... But I like to see the foot of the baby also.. It seems that to hide the edge of the mirror you crop that so tight....
Like to see the original if it had full body of the baby.

Smashing shot. Would have loved it more if it was a shot of the baby alone, looking back over her shoulder like that. Well captured and I like the POV a lot.

Nice lighting and you have a good eye for creative composition. I agree with the constructive comments made earlier by others in the forum. Keep shooting!

airbrushjohn, Welcome

Same thing taken again - go for the eyes, focus there.. It will draw your viewer to her.

Too bad mommy wasn't looking at her little angel. Otherwise this is a superb shot of the baby with a pretty lady in the background that unfortunately adds little to the picture.

i think the photo would be better without the mom in the background. Otherwise it's a great shot in my opinion
