I haven't posted an image in a while and this one I quite liked from a recent shoot I did. At the client's own home, against a pure white wall, using a light/brolly setup, triggered by the SB800. I know the little fella's feet are cropped off (in camera) but I don't think this adversely affects the shot. Comments welcomed:

This is a good image but it could be a great image with a touch more work IMHO. For me there is a touch too much brightness top left and a touch too much shadow bottom right. I've taken the liberty of a quick tweak. Grad ND filter diagonally across the image (Nik Color Efex) but I painted the effect out on the baby's face and the mums arm and hairline. Then a slight dodge top left as well. For me this give a much more even light whereas before the hotspot top left drew my eye there. I finished with a slight curves adjustment. If you no likey says so and the image is gone

If it's there in your original I'd try to bring back some detail in mum's right breast too as it's a little blown out

Peter,
I like what you have done here and I will attempt some of the same on mine. Appreciate it Thanks for the feedback.

I also like it and think that Mum will be well chuffed to tell you the truth.. a good edit by stubbsy too... I would almost consider cropping it in a little tighter and cloning a catch light in Mum's eye to make it pop more...
