Default My little angel's feet

Hi

I try to capture every moment of my little angel who has just turned 3 months.. I tried to capture her lovely little feet.. I tried to hold her feet with one hand and take shot with other..
After the shot I made it BW using Photoshop.

I would appreciate if you can let me know if I did justice to her feet :-)? And if the composition and lighting is good or I need to do something different?

EXIF Info:
Camera: Nikon D-80
Exposure Program: Manual
F-Stop: f/5.6
Max Aperture Value: f/5.7
ISO Speed Ratings: 400
Focal Length: 135.0 mm

I like it my only comments are that I would've liked if her toes were more in focus and also your hand is a little distracting on the left side of the picture. Lighting looks alright one foot does look over exposed and the other a little under, but that's probably because of the shadow of the one foot cast on the other.

Hi Gina

Thanks for taking the time to see my picture and appreciate for the comments.. You are right, that my hand was distracting the main subject.. I have tried to crop the picture from the left.. please check this out...

I definitely think that the crop helps, it makes the main focus on the feet, and what adorable little feet they are . Have you tried the shot without your hand? I did a shot similar and I used a blanket and kind nestled the baby's feet in the blanket.

I think it's great! What was the shutter speed? It seems like the foot camera left is just a bit blurry.

@Gina, thanks. I didn't try that since she is always moving her legs . Will try again this week!
@Mike, glad that you liked it. The exposure time was 1/20s and the blurriness, i guess is 'coz she was moving her feet
