Comment by loriprophoto:
I cant make out what the little girl is holding. This would have improved this shot, also needs better lighting, had she turned more towards the light or it fill flash had been used it would have improved the shot.

Comment by Strikeslip:
The composition is pretty nice for a portrait of the girl, who's face, by the way, is cute enough to be on a cereal box. The focus and dof are very nice for the girl, but seem to miss the beast. Maybe it's due in part to the lack of contrast with of the dark beast with the dark background just behind it. I like the story, because a day at the zoo all about kids and the wild kingdom, even better if they have the chance to interact.

If they ever have a challenge on "freckles", you need to reshoot this! Problem with photo is that it's a little hard to see the critter.

I just wish the creature she was holding was lit with a fill in flash. I can't tell what it is.

Hmm...the beast is out of focus and hard to see.

whatever she's holding in her hand would seem to be a key element in this image, but it's out of focus, dark and impossible (for me) to make out.
