Nice pic!

However remember this is the critique section, if you want feedback you should also provide EXIF settings.

I love this shot! In fact, I didn't have anything to critique until I scrolled down and saw the dried leaves (?) at the bottom of the shot. I would crop or clone those out as they distract from you beautiful baby.

sorry new member, didnt read the rules b4 hand!!

thanks,he was placed in a wicker basket, i'll av a go at cropping it more, not too gud with photoshop!

Awesome shot, love it! I also don't like seeing just the edge of the basket, but I wouldn't want to go wider on the shot and I'm afraid you'll lose too many good parts of the image if you completely crop it out. I know you said you're not great with Photoshop, but see if you can play around with the clone tool and cover up the basket with more of the fuzzy white blanket.

Nice pic but not so nice cloning. A big part of cloning is that you don't want to have repeated patterns as seen in your pic. Try to source from different areas with clone. It's difficult to do and takes lots of practise
