Greetings from the Critique Club

Congratulations on a fine finish in this Challenge. 22nd out of 600+ is a pretty good ending!

Duotone treatment fits this image perfectly, as does the expression on your daughter's face. Those wide open eyes, wise beyond reason, are brought to the center of our attention with this technique. Interesting, I tried several different crops by moving the image around on my screen. While (imo) you went to the very edge with this crop, it quickly grew out of balance with a more pronounced one.

so, all in all, a great image, that shows the care and attention you put into it. You were quite well rewarded by our voters, and certainly have an image you, your wife and your daughter can be happy with.

First off let me say that I don't typically like facial skin that has been smoothed to the point where detail is lost however with the expression that kid has and those eyes and the duotone colors it all just works. Bumping up.

The lighting, the off-center composition, the facial expression...nothing is missing here. 10
