I blew up the picture of George and cropped out everyone. I like this pic!  Are there any higher resolution large scale images of these pics on the net? |

I'm slightly disappointed at how little Charles action there is. I would have expected at least one photo where he is holding his grandson.  Yup *sigh* Charles doesn't look genuinely happy in any of the photos I've seen, neither does Camilla though she's at least making a better attempt to look happy than Charles. I've a feeling grandparenting isn't turning out as Charles maybe thought it would, he probably knows by now that the Middletons are chief grandparents and he and Camilla are merely extras who will see the baby only when the Middletons aren't in possession. As for the photo of William, Kate and George, it's quite peculiar. Kate looks like she's away with the fairies, and William has a very odd strained kind of smile. No wonder George has his arms in the air and his mouth open, I imagine the poor babe is trying to say 'Help! Help! Don't leave me with these two weirdos!'  |

Holy bad Photoshop job on the one of just Kate, Will, and George! I liked all the ones with various family members together, bad lighting and all, though  At least they brightened Will's teeth. The Queen's legs look about 30 years younger too. OMG, did they make QEII's legs thinner?? Doesn't it look that way? I din't notice the whitening, but I actually thought they made Willnot's teeth smaller...lol. |

Unless William just got his teeth bleached, they're noticeably whiter. Kate's teeth have been bleached already, and hers are a lot whiter than William's are. |

I just was so distracted by so many other photoshop fails that I had only noticed they looked smaller. Those photos are just all kinds of bad. I always wonder, in these situations where someone has a seriously photoshopped pic, do they really think they look like that...like, do they not own mirrors and can see the truth? Or are they delusional? I would be creeped out to have photos of myself around the house that made me look like a super-pale zombie... |

It's just the first thing I noticed in that picture were the Queen's legs. I couldn't believe how smooth and nice they looked for a woman her age. I don't know about the UK, but they photoshop Kate to death on magazines over here, as well as every other celeb. When you see skin that's overly smooth, and blemish free, that's typically a sign. The lighting also helps too. |

I blew up the picture of George and cropped out everyone. I like this pic! Are there any higher resolution large scale images of these pics on the net? His eyes look very dark blue here. Time will tell. I wonder if they broke the photoshop on these pics!! Holy crap. Kate already wears trowel-level makeup, and the PS makes it worse. Very bland, stiff, unemotional photos. I don't care how great this guy is supposed to be, I agree, he's not worth what they paid for these. They way they look and the way they're posed makes it fairly obvious that there are some unhappy undercurrents going around. What they might be, I haven't a clue. W&K look happy, but blah otherwise. If she had to insist on wearing something in the white color family, Kate should have worn a lighter, brighter white to offset the cream of the christening gown. Pips should not have worn the color either. The queen is not a warm and fuzzy person, so I don't really expect her to reach to hold his hand or whatever. I did expect her to hold G, although I'm not aware she held W at his own christening. The coat dress makes Pips look preggers, front or back. The beard helps James' looks - the buggy eyes and weak chin are balanced out with it. I don't give a flat damn about Carole and Mike looks like he wants to hit the nearest pub. Phil looks good, all things considered. Queen looks like she wants to get it over. Chas looks... hard to describe. Not happy, not warm and not fuzzy; agreed that at least Cams looks happy to be at the event. OMG shoot me, I just said something positive about Cams! Where's the bucket! Anyway, since W&K have been a great disappointment from day one, the blandness of this event doesn't surprise me at all. These pics just continue to underwhelm us all. |

Thanks, Tudorfan. The blow up of George is cute.  I see a little of Charles' baby eyebrows there. He is a real mix and has a handsome shaped head. The replacement Christening gown is nice. Is it a tad darker than the original? Do you think that George wore the bonnet in the chapel? Photoshopping images defeats the whole notion of taking a photographic record of an occasion. I think it should be banned for pictures of important public events and people.  I hope photoshop is not used on these official portraits. |

Liz ain't hiding her feelings ... you know it's bad when Victoria did it better ... there seems to be a war between The Royals and The Middletons and The Christening showed that not even Harry could wear his happy face ...

My mom and I were talking on the phone yesterday, and she brought up how the royal baby was christened. She said she was when the Queen was presented with the baby and was like I don't know how she didn't try to kiss the baby. I was like but the parents weren't either.
While the baby was always supported (and granted I didn't see any videos) was anyone really affectionate with George? I don't mean full on kissing, or grabbing baby fat (although how can they resist), but I didn't see any caressing of the head, nothing. Maybe I missed it.
As for the "professional" photos, what did they do to Kate's face? The baby looks much cuter in the pics though. Very animated.
I watched the videos and concluded that it was strange (and sad) that no one was physically demonstrative towards PG. Kate and Wills were as stiff with their own son as the rest of them. I hope that isn't how they parent off camera. |

It has to be that someone told her to push it all to the back. It looks so much better this way. |

I hope that isn't how they parent off camera. I think it's just the nature of the BRF to not show PDA's. They are brought up like that, and Kate is just following suit, although she comes from a more close-knit family. They probably kiss him a lot when they're alone with him. He doesn't look like he's in need of love, food, warmth or anything. He seems like a very well taken care of baby, that's for sure. It was probably harder for William when he was a baby with a somewhat cold father, and a mother going through postpartum depression, and I would imagine that would make for a really crabby baby, as William reportedly was. Diana always looked so sad in those christening photos of William, and I know why. |
