Thanks for the great comments!

I had hoped this would score higher.
Any input would be appreciated as to why it didn't.

Thanks again for the great comments and feedback. How nice to have this picked as a favorite. She's my great niece...what a cutie!

I fave'd this picture. I remember it so well from the challenge, and I was surprised it wasn't in my faves already. I love the clarity, her expression (of course) and the colors. Great picture.

I saw this over on your Pbase gallery first and just fell in love with it! I think the "cute" factor just doesn't score well around here for the most part. I think this certainly should have finished top 10, though. ~sigh~...well, we've all been there!

The expression and the clarity is just stunning.

I feel your pain when it comes to low scores and beautiful kids. This should have done much better than it did. I'm adding it to my favs.

I have no clue on the score, but it's beautiful. If she's related to you, then be happy with the score and gloriously, deliriously overjoyed that you have such a wonderful shot to keep forever. :)

Awwww. . .this one that I TRULY think is underrated. She is so precious, and this captures her to well! 6.359, and 33rd place is a nice strong finish. . .but not as strong as it deserves in my opinion!

Your certainly made that lens work for its money. Nice result indeed. Bear in mind anti-beauty is often applauded more than naive innocent beauty, at least at DPC. This is entirely lacking in grunge, wrinkles, grease, and other metaphoric dirt. Whatever the score, you are a winner. I wonder about the crop. The colour and subject are very nice, but perhaps the crop is not perfect.

Very cute composition, nice photo. I think a softer light would have highlighted the photo better.
