Now that is really special. Nice job, good exposure, good color, good pose, and excellent post processing skills.

That's terrific. At first I looked at the photo and thought "What? There is no cloning as far as my eye can see in this photo!?" and then I saw the before pic. Great job, really!

Wow, what a shot! I too think you can remove the word almost, the parents must be thrilled!

I do have to admit that for a minute or two I thought the first shot was the before and I sat here wondering "now why would you clone in the hands". Then I thought about supporting the babie's head and I got it! Wow, pretty dense today! :oops:

Yeah agree with others. Cloning is just SUPERB and the pose and the lightening, skin tone is awesome. Just PERFECT!

If that's the look you were going for, it's fine. I don't care for the WA close look...messes with the perspective.
