 Come on...have you ever seen a cuter little girl! She just loves doing these portraits. She woke up with a cold but still wanted to "take pictures". Any way, I'm happy with the background. First time I used a flash behind the background. Produced much more even lighting of the back drop. Catch light is from the front window I use for side light.

‘Tis said their forms are tiny, yet

All human ills they can subdue

Excerpt from "The Pixies" by Samuel Minturn Peck

I changed my entry 5 times. She was so cooperative and in to "the shoot".

maybe a tad bit of dodging on her eyes to make the pupil be more distinct. good choice going with the green shirt and bow, its cute

What a lovely portrait. I love her expression, and the focus on her eyes is great.

You definitely chose an excellent person to photograph! Her impish look really makes this shot. I love the bit of her bow in the corner - balances out the shot nicely!
