Baby C&C

[Cass]

I took this picture of my daughter's best friend and her baby. I like how it turned out but does anyone have any c&c to offer to make the pic look better. She wants to be able to print this out into a 8x10.

Thanks in advance!

I would suggest some levels/curves adjustments to brighten up the child slightly and and some more aggresive work to bring out the detail in the mother's face. Be careful, since brightening of under-exposure will lead to noise, it becomes a balancing act between enough detail and too much noise.

Depending on how large the original image is, I would consider a much tighter crop, removing the bottom of the image to exclude the mother's forearm, and most of the 'empty' space image right.

Have you got another shot that is not blurred, too much blur on this one
