While a nice family picture, this picture isn't exactly artistic. There is too much light, the compostion is weak, and has a real lack of contrast. I fell bad critique a picture like this with a bad review, but this is an art review site.

as a mother I get strong feelings from this picture. He was very small indeed. hopefully everything turned out well at the end. Shame you didn't include more of the hand

I think this is a precious image and captured exactly how you wanted, although a bit out of focus, its amazing to see how small your son was, I hope everything is all right with him now, nice photo.

    Thank you very much for your review. It was taken in a hurry so he could be put back on the breathing machine. It is too bad that i couldnt have gotten it more focused.

oh golly....I hope the baby is ok!! He looks so "fragile' and so tiny. I know these moments for a newborn are so critical. The picture is "heart-rendering" yet hopeful for a wonderful life ahead, filled with all the blessings one can possibly have.
a very powerful shot, and emotional shaker. great picture

This is a very touching photo. This infant looks so helpless and sad. You have captured the most delicate moment in this child's life. Great job and Good luck in the future.

    Thank you very very much for your review. He was making us all nervous at this point.

I think it is very sad to put pictures of your son on internet. To me that should have been personal I no. I am a grandpa and my daughter's son was hooked up like that for a month.I was happy that he lived, and I sure wouldn't have wanted his picture displayed in this manner. I do wish him well.

Oh my God he is so tiny. You must have been holding your breath while he stonecutter. So fragile. I saw your later picture of him, and just want you to know I am so happy for you that he is so strong and beautiful now.

    Thank you very much for your review. Im glad he is so much bigger also.
Comment from Dogberry


Doesn't he look vulnerable and trusting. Glad to hear he's progressing as much as you could wish. This is obvously a shot you're going to treasure forever.

A little over exposed, but I suppose you could't adjust the lighting at the time, and had your mind on other things. A photo like this, though, doesn't have to be technically perfect to make a strong emotional appeal.

Thanks for sharing.

    Thank you very much for your review. The lights in the NICU are very bright.
Comment from Papa


suekimmy, congratulations on the birth of this tiny baby. I do hope he is doing well. You certainly have accomplished your objective here as one can clearly see the numerals for the weight, and, although less cleary, your hand is visible enough. As I am sure you appreciate yourself, the quality of the photograph is not the best, because it is seriously over exposed. But still it is a marvelous recording of the experience. Peace, Papa.
