My wife and kid
Posted By: the swede, 10-18-2010, 11:28 AM

These were taken on the fly a day, and afterwards i was a litle dissapointed because i wanted it to look better in a hundred different ways (posing, clothes, mood, lighting) but i had to calm down and realise that they ARE good enough for my preferences.

My wife said that "This moment will never come again, just be happy with them". Im glad she did, because now i love these photos. I hope you like them to!

I have them in both color and B/W. I would love to hear your thoughts on B/W post processing, because i just cant get my head into the ways of B/W.

They are both very expressive mand natural-
your wife has beautifull eyes and your baby - already very curious and awake!

But not the least - they looked to me very happy!
I like how you pictured it!

Adorable! Love the toning and expressions on the B&W one but both are first rate.

The second shot captures the attention on your baby. Beautiful shots, and should have included yourself in the frame to make it a beautiful family

Very sweet. Those are perfect!

I know exactly what you mean about overthinking everything. One thing I am learning is how to enjoy the process. Even the failures. Learn from them, yes, but even more than that - appreciate what beauty they contain, even if it is not technically "perfect".

(*not that these in any way are failures....just saying that to encourage you to see what beauty there is in any photograph you take.)

I like the second photo for the expression on the kid's face. Great use of the B&W here!

mikael, these are 2 wonderful images of your family. I love the b/w, not just for the b/w but for the facial expressions as well.

sorry,跑题了,喜欢第二张,相对于第一张,baby的眼神能够更加集中观众的注意力,而不是像第一张分散了,虽然第一张也很好
