 I could look at this image all day long. This was Ada's pose - All natural (sunlight) coming in through the sliding glass door to the right and bouncing of a partial wall on the left.

Her straight-face poses are money ... I realize this is perhaps seen as a shoehorn into the challenge, but I WAS shooting for the challenge to I can justify it that way I suppose (at least she's not smiling!) I desaturated the yellow channel because the bounced light was too ... uh, yellow (as is the wall) ...well I'm completely biased but this may be a top 5 fave image I've sumbited.

Man she is growing up. I am usually pretty quick to pick her out in a challenge but this one snuck by me. Nice work Tate.

Very cute, but the eyes are a little unlife like. The cookie crums around her mouth adds a nice touch to it.
