She certainly looks a little gem - I really liked the way her body was turned away from the viewer, and that she was turned towards us - it somehow gives the feeling that the viewer has called out to her and she has turned to see who is calling. A very pleasing portrait.

She's so cute! I gave this an 8 in voting. I think the voting was pretty harsh in this challenge.

oh! why such a low score? this is adorable! I love the flower she is holding and also that she has some kind of cute floral thing in her hair. This, for sure, is a wonderful keepsake.

She's adorable, I think a background of a different color would make this pop more.

Don't assume that because you have an affinity for your subject, the rest of the world will too. Otherwise, a good workmanlike photo.

Focus on the face needs to be a little sharper but a cute shot all the same.

The vignetting really frames this shot nicely
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/14/2009 11:26:02 AM
so is that a look of apprehension? such a lovely, soft, feeling here.. love it!

Cute girl. Good colour in the flower... though I dont think the vignette is good for this shot.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/13/2009 06:09:46 PM
Very cute. The flower adds a nice splash of colour
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/13/2009 12:09:26 PM
I'm of a mixed opinion on the strong magenta in her skin tones. On one hand it makes her look a bit feverish/processed, and on the other hand, it creates a nice visual link to the flower.

Same goes for the hue of her eyes with the flower.

Fortunately there's a fairly heavy hand on the vignetting that makes it obvious that the picture is 'worked on', so it's likely that a good chunk of that is that way because of choice.

I like it a fair bit, but just shy of a 10t.

not sure if the blur was around the bottom picture was added on purposed but would have like it to be a bit more sharper ... not sure what the girl is doing with her other hand

I am not a fan of the vignetting here. When i look at the photo, I just think that it would be better if it was much lighter. I like how she's looking back at the camera; it's different than a typical head-on portrait.
