 My niece is just starting to correctly use a fork for herself so I couldn't resist a snap. She has only just turned 18 months but she seems to be growing up so quickly. She's always running around, so needless to say this is one of the few times she is still enough for a photo.

** Greetings from the Critique Club **

Might just be my screen - but there looks to be a smudge on the wall to the right of the girls face and the sippy cup. It is distracting to me at least. The wall color is not a great background choice - but we cannot control everything, can we? Otherwise, the color balance is nice and vibrant. Would have been good if you could have caught her eyes looking upward just a tad so that you could see them a bit.

Try to bounce the flash off the ceiling next time. The lighting is pretty harsh. I like the red hair - you are going to have your hands full!

Excellent subject matter for the title of "independence". A reminder of our first attempts at going it alone. Nice crisp shot of this cutie's gorgeous red hair!

white balance seems off - too much magenta?

How cute. I can just hear her squawking when you try to feed her because she wants to do it herself :)

The proponderance of pink throws me off here.
Otherwise, a good subject for this challenge.
