 I was originally going to just take the picture of the chicks, but the little girl was too cute and had to be in it. The flash didn't work in the store too well so I took it without and used the curves tool in Photoshop to lighten it.

how are you reducinghte size of your image for entry? i found out the hard way that bakic editing wont' cut it, when a qhite good image tanked because it lost al its crispness in reducing it to 640pix. that could be one issue easily solved.

Mary this girl is cute, but there are a few issues here...the yellow cast has already been commented on. You can adjust this in your image editing software. The focus isn't strong, the whole shot is quite blurry. It's a pity, because this shot is so cute and the composition is good. I am sure that those two things alone would have made for a higher score. You got 61 x 5's. Had that been 61x 6's with those two things corrected, you might have finished in the top 20%.

Keep going. I would do as much as I could to utilise this gorgeous ittle model in future challenges...she's adorable!

The colors look a little strange I think but definitely a good idea and a lovely baby!

Pity about the focus and the distracting products on the sides - nice idea.
