Birth

Your family is beautiful. And I must say, your wife is very tolerant of the camera. Thanks for sharing.
 
The pictures are simply wonderful and you sir are a very lucky man. Congratulations and my best to you and your newly expanded family.

Oh what can I say ... merci à tous, thank you all, you're too nice to me, I'm touched.
Mike: I'm glad you like this picture, I like it too ;-)
crawdiddy: I guess wives of RFF members have to be tolerant of the camera. I just hesitated to post the pictures, but she's fine with that.
Again, merci.
Marc
 
Marc - I have a daughter (5) and a son (3) and was there every minute of both deliveries. In fact, for six hours during my daughter's delivery my wife was in the anti-odalisque pose while I pushed my knuckles into her lower back. Your marvelous images bring me right back to those moments. My favorite is #7 - you captured a look on your wife's face that brought tears to my eyes. From a technical standpoint, the shots look surprisingly less contrasty than I usually expect from Neopan 1600.

Congratulations to you and your wife and welcome to your son - John
 
What beautiful photos. So personal but also universal. They brought back memories and emotions for me too. Congratulations on your lovely family, and best wishes to all.

John, Laura, Robert, thanks a lot for your words :)

foto_foolFrom a technical standpoint said:
I can tell you that some shots I didn't post are very contrasty, almost unworkable with the scanner/photoshop. I didn't processed my roll myself but the Fuji lab in Paris (which works for different labs) did. I must say that I was a bit disappointed by the results (usually they do great job), but I'm waiting for some prints I ordered to see the final results; scans can be deceptive so it's better to judge from prints.
Best,
Marc
 
Marc -- These are all fantastic! I agree w/ MikeL about the beautiful lighting (and composition) on #8. Many, many congratulations on the arrival of Gabriel!
 
Steve, thanks for your PM, what you said touched me.
Roland, that means more family pictures to come ;-)
Ned, merci beaucoup, your comment means a lot to me.
