stunning child portrait.

It is a beautiful capture of the innocent pleasures of childhood. Good framing by the branch in front. The good composition might have been better had the child been a bit on the left of frame. I find more negative space to her right. I feel a bit of yellowish tint. Is it there on the image or some problem with my monitor? I also would wish to see some details in the highlights on her right cheek and nose.

I love the innocence of a child this portrays. Busy picking little flowers with just a perfect expression on her face.

Technically, a couple hot spots on her face. I really wish the twigs weren't across her head

This is a good expression of the "work" of childhood, and I think it generally comes across well.  She has a somewhat serious look on her face, it seems genuine and not staged, and it's almost unexpected given her activity; I like it.  I also like the budding branches in the upper right portion of the frame, and I don't mind that they cross in front of her head.  I don't mind the light-colored tree trunks directly behind her head, but I can understand if some folks object to them.  A few things I wish were different:  the yellowish tint on her face (not present on her hands), the splotchy appearance of her facial skin, and the fairly heavy-handed vignette across the bottom of the frame (I think it's simply too strong).

Hello Anette,

Looking at the larger version by clicking on your photo, I noticed that your subject's face was not in focus, but some of the buds on the bush were, as are parts of the scarf and sweater.  What was your reason for keeping sharp focus away from the subject's face?

Thank you ~ Richard
