Thanks Genway and Kim. I will try some of your suggestions - I hadn't really thought about the ear as a focal point. But I think I missed the boat a little there, I probably can refine it and add some orange values for that special eary translucence babies have.
Kim, the front flower is leaning into her. It's casting a shadow on her dress. You probably can't see it from the photo but there's a bit of a stem angling off to the right. I'm conflicted about that flower - I like the shadow it's casting, it reinforces the cast shadows on her hand, but it does seem a bit incongruous now that you bring it up.
Thanks!
