Stef with bottle

Couldn't resist this shot. Yeah, yeah I know it's a cutesie baby shot 'n all, but there seems to be a look of indignation on his face which sort of reminds me of that Karsh shot of Winston Churchill, just after he'd taken his cigar off him!

Indeed a classic! Characterful- yes, cheesy - not to me, he seems to be saying "Who cares what you're up to, I've got much more important things on my mind...

I did find I was trying to decide whether the little 'curls' on the top of his head ARE perfect curls or the pattern of the wallpaper - I think they're dinosaur feet? Don't think that matters though - if they are, the positioning is perfect..

Ypu've caught that meaningful old man characteristic that every baby has for fleeting moments if you can capture it.

We come into the world bald and wrinkled and leave it the same way. Full circle.

Of course, he'll only appreciate it when he is almost full circle himself and thinks about life the way only old men do.
