Mmmm! Not too sure about the headband? I know a teddy with no head isn't good composition but perhaps it may look better as a portrait; or even a square crop. Too much teddy and not enough baby is what I'm trying to say.

Regardless of the annoying headband, the shot is amazing. Did you try the same thing on a white backdrop?

Color temp is a little too cool and the eyes look over whitened. Did you touch the eyes at all in post?

Thanks TacC... no didn't get it with white because the child had a mind of it's own... hahaha she was a handful... lucky to get that shot... @ Leif I like a cool WB, that's just my style... and I didn't do anything to the eyes but smart sharpen them... no whiten... thanks for the comments...
