**Greetings from the Critique Club!**

Now this has everything ... including the Cuteness factor! The colors and contrast are great, and I love the composition. As you noted in your own notes, you know that her face is not well lit. It's awesome that you love it anyway, and so would I. It is a clear, sharp photo, that meets the challenge and beyond.

Overall, this photo is pleasing in every way. The only thing I would correct (the shadows), you already know about. Keep up the good work!

In this group, I would have expected this much much higher. Just goes to show you I have no clue... Thought this was great BTW.

alittle bit of cropping to put more emphasis on the subject would've been more appealling
