Beautiful!

Adorable.

Very nice portrait - I love to see images that show the other sides of being a child - smiling and laughing of course are always wonderful, but images such as this remind us of the other times - great in b&w too- very nice-

Thanks, all. - Roy

You certainly have a knack for working with children. Out of a selection of strong images this one really struck me as exceptional. The expression is so ...well expressive. A trusting and inquisitive glance.

 

The framing of her face with her hair works to pull attention in to those wide eyes. The lighting, although a little harsh, ( window light ? ) has been handled well. The focus on her right eye is spot on although I could always wish it extended to her left eye also.

 

My only suggestion would be to clone out that one errant hair which loops outward from her right cheek and is catching the light. Nice work.

Gordon, thanks for the suggestion. Her mother wants a large print and I will follow your advice. I guess I had edited that strand out in my head. - Roy
