I have to agree with Liza, Karen. This is over the top and got my vote. I remember Argishti's photo, too. She is a miracle and you have created a beautiful image of that miracle.

This is quite possibly one of your best photos ever. the light and dark are captured flawlessly. You've got to be thrilled with this one, no?

Robin Reid01-Oct-2005 02:08
Excellent Karen.
Mindy McNaugher01-Oct-2005 02:02
Oh, Karen, there aren't words to adequately describe this photograph! It fills my heart with every emotion that a newborn baby brings to one's heart! (And though I don't have children of my own, I have a niece who I lived with from the time she was two months old!) All the tenderness, all the love, all the joy, the complete miracle of life – all of these are captured in this photo! A single vote doesn't begin to do this justice! Exquisite photograph!!! And perfect in black and white!
Herb 01-Oct-2005 01:41
