I would like to get your thoughts on this picture? I am torn on whether it works or not? I like it somedays, others I think it is "blah."

Having said that though, I find myself going all ga ga over babies this age, regardless of technical photo issues. That's my 2 cents worth. Sue Cassidy

On the original image on the left, it is mostly flat gray and black tones. The image on has a bit of exposure adjustment and contrast added. Sue Cassidy
