After the horrendous tsunami in South Asia, and the massive landslides in the Philippines, I wish to end this year by showing the beauty and life and promise of Asia. Happy new Year to everyone.
My niece Jaja. In between photo-takes, she giggled, laughed boisterously, prepped herself up, etc. She didn't know that that was what I was after...a candid moment.

Mnay thanks. I am especially happy because this is the firts time that i use a family member for the challenge...and I won a top 5!
Thanks. As far as I am concerned, it was a candid shot as i did it between takes. I have this printed and apparently, the teeth is not yellow as some of you commented.
If this is truely not a staged shot, then it is serendipity and planning at it best. Excellent DOF use, and softening of skin...ah crap, it's just freakin awesome OK? Bumpt to a 10.
It's a beautiful picture, but it's overworked to the degree that it no longer feels candid, even though I'm sure it was. As long as you're working it so hard, why not whiten the teeth a tad? Lovely image, but for me it doesn't work directly to the challenge.
Very nice with the post work on this photo. Looks like an ad in a magazine! Was it posed though or truley candid? Feels like Hawaii.... Very cute girl.
