"Mi Pulguita" is Spanish for "My Little Flea". It's what I used to call my daughter when she was little because she was such a tiny little thing. She's all grown up now.

Here is a shot of her from Saturday. Feedback always welcome:

    Tu Pulguita es muy bonita! (hope I didn't butcher that as it's been a long time since I've used Spanish)

    Really like this a lot. The soft light and its direction compliments the subject very well. The pose looks very casual and comfortable as well.

    Minor complaint...

    Don't like the sharpness of the leaves in the foreground on top just to the right of her head. Blur em!

    You did very well Bryce with the Spanish. As for the leaves... do you mean right next to and above my watermark?

    Yo creo que Bryce se refiere a las que estan a la derecha de la foto, encima de su cabeza.

    Great shot. Did you just use available light or add a bit?

    I have an SB-900 speedlight in a large shoot-through umbrella to camera left. Afternoon sun was to her back.
