Gorgeous shot. I love how the catch light in the eye is a window or at least look one. By the way babies do have lots of thoughts flowing through their heads and take in and learn more per minute awake than when they are older (at least that is what I tell students when I lecture in Introductory Psychology), so the choice of a baby is very fitting for the theme. Good luck this week.
Another shot from Bev's Fabulous Foto Factory! Week after week you just keep crankin' 'em out! It not only works a s a great photo but also as a fascinating abstract of light vs dark.
Really like this one. An almost dreamlike photo, with the processing / lighting of the face and eyes. It makes me think of whats happening inside the brain in the child head. How it must be processing the new, changing outside world.
This is just fantastic, Beverly. Congrats on being a finalist, I wouldn't be at all surprised if you win the whole thing. Did you use natural lighting? Good luck!
