C&C To Make This Shot The Best It Can Be
After a recent series of shots of our daughter, my wife and I fell in love with this one. We were thinking about getting a nice large print to hang in our bedroom, and we want it to be the best version of the image that it possibly can be. Firstly, how would you improve it in post for a print on a wall? Secondly, how would you improve at the time of shooting (for my future reference)?
Thanks in advance!
1/250 at f/4 and ISO 100. 35mm. XSi.

The composition is great
my comment on the BW
it almost looks sepia
I would like to see a little more contrast.
A black and white should have something that is white and something that is black
Work with your histograms and push the two ends of the bw spectrum

Awesome photo!
I think the antique style of processing works very well, especially with that classic hat. I also like the light coming through the fence, as well as the slight vignetting!
I think it looks great just the way it is, but I also agree with adding a little more contrast as suggested by iND, perhaps just 1-2 clicks, you then may need to up the exposure a "tiny" bit.

You should upload the image to a site like flickr and allow for image downloading and then let some of the skilled folks here do some adjusting. You could pick one that you really liked and then print that one. Just have to upload a large res image so that it will print out nice. Just a thought if you are not big into Photoshop.

I was up late editing and sort of in the groove so I saw this and took a stab. Let me know if you want to use them I'll email you the hi res versions.
