Achingly intimate shot. His expression could be read any number of ways - at the moment I see him as protesting going to bed, as all the while his eyelids are getting more and more heavy.

Remarkable capture of emotion. Well done.

Curious title. I had to really look at this photo... the fingers revealed that this was a child (otherwise I wasn't sure).

Cute. Nice B&W image. Nice lighting. If you could have added a little catch light in the eye (small single LED flashlight maybe?) it would be a killer shot.

Really nice shot. I don't know what this thing is on the bottom left - blanket, maybe(?), but it's distracting. Cropping more of that out would be my suggestion.

Great capture, cool idea, very nice use of the saturation.

This photo seems very personal. I like the overall feel with the tones, despite the fact there aren't any bright whites. Great shot!

And as a parent i can bet that child is saying 'why do I have to go to bed I am not tired'. Evocative image which because of the conversion and the effect it has on the clothes almost (to me) makes me think of the 50's. Terrific shot though and a definite keeper
