Bright, colorful, happy... coulda/shoulda scored better.
FYI, you can always add Photographers Comments - there should be a link for you at the bottom of the "Photograph Information" box that says "Edit the Details of the Image." |

I forgot to add comments when I uploaded the photo and now I can't figure out how to go back and add them....
This is a favorite of mine because this is her - bright, colorful, loud and always wearing mismatching things. Her skin and hair are very fair and can be a challenge for me, and on this day, I felt that I had finally gotten them right without being too overexposed.
Post challenge comments -
Thank you for all of the comments and suggestions! Based on some of the comments, I'm guessing my monitor is a little darker than everyone's though. :)

The eyes are great in this photo, that alone scores high. But I find the chin a bit overexposed. |

The eyes are nice but the rest of the image is way too bright and distracting. |

Could be a lovely portrait but is over exposed. Very harsh lighting also. |

Love the colour in the eyes, but the lighting is a bit to harsh. |

Great blue eyes. Shot is a bit hot overall, and IMO DOF is too short or you could lose a lot of the brown top by cropping in closer. |

I don't think I've ever seen an over-exposed portrait work as well as this. Great stuff! |

"Look up honey!" came the call, and she looked, for that voice was the voice of love and comfort, but also of command. She looked, and saw the camera there, and had expected it, for wasn't it almost always there, clicking away, a constant intrusion in her busy little life of play and discovery? Of course it was, but she didn't mind so much. It made her mother happy, and she did like to look at herself on the screen.
She looked up, and squinted in the bright sunlight that sone down, and gave her light little smile and was frozen in an instant of time, and her mom gave her the usual thank you and smiled back, and then it was done and she turned back to her play and quickly it was forgotten by her, for her mind was young and fickle and prone to distraction and was lost to the imaginations of the next moment.
Yet her mother stood there, and checked the shot, and smiled and watched her daughter play, and felt such a rush of love for her in her chest that it was almost painful, and she cherished every little moment of time that she could capture. |

Nice work on the eyes. Otherwise feels a bit over exposed to me. Or maybe just over lighted. |

I like the overexposed look of this. It isn't overexposed, but just brighter than I would expect. It works to bring out the colors in her eyes. |

Cute kid and pretty blue eyes. I find myself squinting too, but I think that's because it's a bit too overexposed/bright for me. |

Her blue eyes do look fantastic, wish the image were a bit less bright overall though. |

And blue they are! I think they punch more by having her against the blue background. Good focus on her face, a little over exposed but I can totally see why this would be your gem. Great shot for the challenge. |

I think her eyes would stand out even more if the background wasn't blue as well. |

Nice shot, but could have used a bit more color depth (curves). Seems a bit overexposed. |

Cute kid - stunning eyes.
The top is really distracting to me, I would have cropped more away. |
