    ...or this shot should be even less sharp (more dreamy).
    Hope that may help and just my 2 cents.
    I can never decide how I want this photo lol. I have a sharp version, a soft version, a colour version, a minimalist version etc... lol it's ridiculous really.

    My ultimate goal, I guess, for this image would be to see it hanging in a Dr's waiting room or a maternity ward or over a crib. Any suggestions on what would make the image more appealing and more likely to achieve that goal are greatly appreciated.

    For me...go ultra soft OR ultra sharp. This photo lies in the middle.

    My pleasure to give an opinion if you post additional versions of this image

    I think I'd like to see this with the same BW crop in BW like shot 1 but with the only lashes sharpened. That might be my instinct here.
