Wow, I have a photo almost exactly like this..really..almost to the T. Except the little girl in my shot has her palm up and a spittle bubble in her mouth. Wieeeeeeeerrrrrrdddddddd. I'm not nearly as unique as I thought I was!!!! I think this is great but I'm also biased ;-)

Thanks for all of the votes. This shot was not posed. She was not cooperative. I had to shoot and shoot and shoot, and get lucky.

I'm sure it's been said before and I'll say it again: beautiful baby! Nice clarity. How did you get her to raise her pinkie just so? 8

A nice portrait...in the context of this challenge I want her hand/pinkie to be the focus -- I might have tried to draw attention to it by calling the photo "Etiquette Lesson" or putting a tiny (doll's?) teacup in her hand. Then let her arm lead to her wonderful eyes and expression as the "positive" element.

I am not usually a fan of baby shots at all, nor do I usually mark them highly, so this is an exception for me.
The shapes here are just fantastic. The angle of her head, and the way her arm pushes into the negative space are exactly right. Makes for a great composition. The highlights in her eyes are great and you've caught her hint of a smile so well. There's a little too much blow out in the highlights of her skin, but not massively so.
Great shot!
9, Kavey

Comment by Gordon:
Fantastic - great contrast with the background - excellent expression and framing. Only issue is it seems a bit soft focused on the eyes - maybe worth experiementing with setting the focus on the eyes and reframing, if you don't already do that, or maybe different sharpening settings 10 - Gordon
