I was feeding the baby a bottle in our bed (a quilt on it) and the picture just happened.... you can see a piece of her blanket on the top-left corner :)

Pablo Coronel - hand on hand
Tiny hands are such a miracle! I never quite believe that those little tiny fingers come out all ready to go after only 9 months! There's something deliberate about the image that distracts me from the classic sentiment that warms the heart with this type of image. Something about the closed hand, and the big, monster, somewhat controlling or restraining thumb. Makes me feel that the hand wasn't quite willing to play along with the photographer. The background is very distraction also to me. I'd like to imagine that I would have had the presence of mind to go for a lot less depth of field if I had committed myself to all those different angles in the background.
