Default Black and White baby

I took this a while ago, but would like to know what I can do to improve my photos in the future - I suspect that this is too dark?? Any thoughts?



Camera: Canon 450D
Aperture: f/5
Exposure: 1/200
Focal Length: 40mm
ISO Speed: 200

Hi !
The photo seems perfectly sharp and decently exposed all you need to work on is composing the frame and you would have perfect pic.
Cheers!

Adorable baby, Katie, and the shot looks clear, at least in this size. Next time try to get down to his level a bit more so that instead of looking down at him, the viewer is seeing him at eye level. That way those big dark eyes will have even more impact. Also he looks as though he is falling into the left side of the frame so consider his placement when you're composing the shot. I don't mind the dark background but if he filled more of the image, the overall effect would be stronger. TFS and I look forward to seeing more of your work!

Thanks! I'm definitely going to be spending more time with my camera, so hopefully I will have more shots soon
