Seriously, taking some pictures of babies is a thing unto itself. There's very little contrast in baby skin (no sun damage, no wrinkles, no tattoos), so adjusting an image according to its histogram the same way you would a photo of an adult give you a total mess. (Witness the way-wrong hair color against death palor skin in this photo.) I finally figured out that I should leave relatively few dark pixels in the image and not worry about everything bunching right up against overexposed. One pleasant side effect is that you can see a lot more definition in Sophia's fairly-dark eyes. And I like her eyes a lot.

Simple rule of thumb: if you’re a political reporter and you find yourself talking about any politician the way that I talk about Tom Brady, it’s time to retire. Like. Seriously.
