bobfriedman:
nice.. you must be very proud

elsa hoffmann:
Thanks Bob. He is cute and very good - but I think I prefer my camera toys to babies .... FOR DAMN SURE :)

Olivier:
That is obviously the best possible start in life, isn't it?
Maybe a lower vue would have eliminated some of the background on the top of the image? But then of course those delicious hands would have been hidden.

elsa hoffmann:
Olivier - you are quite correct. Position and vantage point is so important with babies - and I am not the worlds best baby shooter to begin with...  Problem was I was shooting in a space so full of stuff - I had to stand wide legged over a crate of wine, avoid the softbox in my view, or I was in front of the light which was just as bad, and shoot over the foot of the bed which was a foot high - so I had very little space to move or change postion.
Why do you think I prefer my gear to shooting babies...  I nearly broke my back trying to shoot this thing.. :)
