Proud Papa with baby Journie

Was at my niece's house to take a group shop of the family. While waiting for everyone to get ready, my great niece picked up my camera and took this photo. I did some PP in CS5. Would like to hear your thoughts, and any C&C would be welcomed.

I like the shot a lot, but don't really care for the darkened area around the edges.

The reason I went that way is because the picture was under exposed to begin with, and I was trying to draw the attention just to the baby and papa. I think if I had tried to lighten it all up, it would have looked very photoshopped which I didn't want at all. Thanks for looking and the CC.

It is a great snapshot. While perhaps not technically perfect it caught a moment in time that shows a tie between dad and daughter that could never be posed. For that reason alone it is a keeper. Your great niece khows what subject matter makes for a good human interest photo.

She does have a good eye, and thanks for the kudos. I will pass them along to her.
