To all who asked, yes there is a hint of color. I adjusted it as I would a sepia pic, and then removed most of the saturation from that. It is almost like adding a trace drop of a single color to a chemical wash. Just enough to give a hint without actually givning a full color.
I envy you the cooperative child. Mine actually will look in the direction of the camera - if anyone other than me is holding it. I really like what you've done here. Might have been better without the flash, as it makes those pinpoint highlights in her eyes, but that's not a biggie. Kind of wish her hand were a little more to the right so it didn't block so much of her mouth and the stem didn't cross her eye, but it's effective, in a way. She's looking at the viewer through the flower. If you were to print this, I'd leave the flower colored, as the rest is slightly soft. Very nice.
Children can be hard to photography and not everyone can do it well. This is a well done photo. You captured the moment so well. She's not only a cutie pie... but her personality shows through ! (8)
