I got to get some pictures of my cousins new babies. Please CC these before I show them to the parents.

Very nice for the first time. These are only nit picks and/or suggestions.

1. Great shot but turn the head of the newborn on camera right. The face looks smashed into the other newborn.

2. Money shot. My favorite.

3. As you stated, fix the brush strokes and this is also very good.

4. Reposition the hand lower, away from the face.

5. Fix the stroke marks and lower the hand from the face.

#1 is a little disturbing to me, but it could be just me. :)

2. like this a lot, but it looks a little red? (I know that could be their actual skin color - maybe convert to black and white?)

3-5 - messy around the edges - not just brush marks, but uneven selection. I'm no photoshop pro, so I don't even bother with selections, but you might be able to get more help on that in the Critique or the Processing section of this website.

I love that first pic, nothing disturbing to me. Looks like they did in the womb. Very cute. With twins, I always think it is cute to position them as if they were holding hands or touching in some way. Like the one on the brown blanket, I'd probably have taken the hand of the baby on the right and put it on the other ones arm. it still looks adorable tucked under his chin, but I'm merely illustrating the "concept" of touching each other when I suggest that. Nice pics!

Thanks Sue! I tried to at least put her arm over his she would wiggle and get him stirred back up only to end up in the same position! He was only happy with his hand up under his chin. They are definitely harder than just one baby! Im going back Friday if nothing happens and will post some more. I have gotten a cute baby bowl and some cute hats to try out :)
