Classic baby shot. One of several trials for the birth announcement.

• A bit of sharpening with Unsharp mask
• Retouching to remove a few spots on the baby's face and some sunlight spots from the blanket
• Selected bed cover in the background, copied to new layer, retouched to erase stray object.
• Added hue/saturation adjustement layer on bed cover only to change dark brick color to better match blanket.
• General levels adjustment layer to lighten everything, a few passes with a very light gray brush on layer mask to lower brightness on the baby's rear end
• B&W adjustment layer at 45% opacity.
