Very nice shot Brooks. Wow...tech pan 25...did you use a tripod or have the camera resting on the table? Nice and sharp.

This was hand held and is highly cropped. I did use my flash, but this time avoided the shadow.

This is a great, "everyday" kind of shot. I thought it a little dark on the right at first, but then noticed how the darkness helps her pop off the page and add to the depth of the image.

The shot is underexposed, and the girl is covering half of her face. Making for a rather bland shot technically. Was this the intention? if so I feel it has completely failed on every level.

I think you could improve this in the printing. I'd go for slightly harder paper (that's the one tech detail you're missing) expose for skin tones, and shade the wood and either shade the photo behind her or burn it in like mad - may be clone that lighter bit out of the corner digitally- but I'd probably crop it tigher too.

Very good. 6/6. I like the composition with the same subject little picture in the frame that reinforce the beauty of this little girl. Ciao.
