Greetings from the Critique Club!
This image shows you have a good mastery of the technicals. The lighting works, the image is focused well for the subject (including DOF), there seems to be no WB issue.
However, I find the crop awkward. There is space on two sides and no space on two sides. This wouldn't necessarily be an issue except for the angle the image was shot at. The subject seems to be sliding out of the frame, making it uncomfortable for me (the viewer). I feel like trying to grab the subject and pull her back up into the image. The foot is cut off which wouldn't be a problem if it was balanced somehow by the other side of the image. But it isn't. This image screams (to me) for an either looser or tighter crop. Something to pull it in balance and keep the subject from sliding out of the frame.
At any rate, you scored well on cuteness factor (picking a good subject is half the battle) and you have three favorites. Quite an accomplishment at DPC for an image of a child. I think you chose the right color background also. White or black would have been way too harsh for the subject. |

I really like the lighting on this...especially the shadows in the green folds. |
