Very cute kid, but the focus is off, the background/surroundings are way too busy and distracting, a bit over exposed. Composition is very good in terms of subject placement.

Great, natural capture of the little girl's face It is a little blurry, so I suspect a slightly faster shutter or ISO might help, if possible. If not, back up, put a tissue of the flash, and use it.

I have to admit that "Love" does not come to mind when looking at this photo w/out the title, but I can see where you are going. Overall, the photo has some potential, but also some flaws that give it a "snapshot" kind of feel. I like how the girls are lined up in a row that flows diagonally through the photo. I like that most of them are wearing read which emphasizes the diagonal. Overall, the photo isn't quite as sharp as it needs to be and seems al ittle washed out. The first girl has a table behind her head that's distracting. A slightly different angle could've taken care of that.

Nice candid shot, but without the title it would have been hard to guess the relationship to the challenge. She's a cutie! Good dof.
