It's been a while

I don't get here very much these days but I recently became a father. Here's a few taken about 10 days ago, using the D700 and 85mmm 1.4 lens.

What a beautiful baby! Congratulations!
I adore your first photo for it brings the
size the little head into context. I also
like the second very much, but if I were
you I would crop the bottom part making
it square so the attention goes directly
to the face - no distracting elements
should be allowed.

Thanks guys. Yep still feels very surreal but the sleep deprivation is v real.
He's one month old tomorrow.
LOVING it all.
Thanks for the feedback

First photo is beautiful! Cute baby but at 1 month old he should be talking and reading Dostoyevsky. My son was playing chess at 2months old...but he wasn't very smart...I beat him 3 games out of every 4.

Congrats Geoff, these are beautiful images that I am sure will be kept in many a family album for years to come

Geoff
Just noticed the similarities between the first image of your baby son and your avatar. What a lovely connection!

The vignette really focuses our attention to the angelic face of the baby surrounded by the caring hands. The lighting is excellent.

I think I would prefer to have the background cushion or trouser-legs removed though. They are a bit jarring.

Lovely image.
