    Wonderful shot from my perspective - gorgeous child - well focused, well exposed and a nice blurred background.

    A great expression captured as well. This is one is a keeper for sure.

    Thanks everyone, this was definitely one that stuck out going thru the shots from that day.

    Now if I could just get her to sit thru a portrait session in the basement I might be able to get better at some of this studio photography.

    But I usually do way better with the big lens attached and getting better candids when they least expect them.

    Thanks again.

    Have you done any post-production? Looks like it would benefit from tweaking in the saturation/colour/brightness/cropping department.

    Very nice picture. She reminds me of the girl from the movie Little Miss Sunshine. Cute little girl.
