This is my three-year-old daughter right before they wheeled her off for an appendectomy. She had a little morphine already, which is why she had the funny expression on her face. Her surgery went well and she is recovering nicely. All the doctors and nurses said she was very brave and just an angel.

This was a quick shot with my camera phone, that was why it was some grainy. I cropped her as best I thought would "tell the story". I don't think you would have gotten the hospital feel from the picture had it been a tight crop on just my daughter. I felt you needed to see a little of the hospital.

This looks too real to be staged. Best wishes for this little one.

The subject matter is good, but the composition could have been a lot better. The centered subject with the distracting surroundings, significantly reduces the impact.

I think this photo could use some cropping. It is pretty busy. Maybe just above hair and just left of right hand? 6

She's so cute! A much tighter crop on her would work better.

Poor little girl she looks feverish. I think if you had tried a different perspective... I.E. through the bars of her bed you may have come up with a more artistic image.

Nice idea. Composition is a bit cluttered though (pink arm is distracting) and it has a bit of a snapshot feel. Also, I think you used a high ISO for the indoor lighting - be careful of that, it creates a lot of noise in your pic. Although in this case I think it helped the pic a bit - it lessened that cheap snapshot feel of the pic.
