My daughter and her teddy. Cropped, levels slight blur for effect, some neat image. 2 candles used for the shoot, and you can see them in her eyes. First challenge submission, not to mention, only been shooting a couple weeks.

But the composition on this is awesome! And the beautiful little model looks so comfortable in front of the camera -- which I'm sure is a tribute to you. I missed voting on this one in the challenge, but I promise you I would have voted it higher than 4!
Thanks for the comments. Most of them were quite helpful. I am learning and every comment only makes things better. I had other photos I had thoughts on entering, and should have. I liked the cuteness this one portrayed, but knew technically...it stunk. I think my next entry will be much better, the DoF challenge.
Nice composition. It would be better to include a candle in it. Something is wrong with this photo technically - too soft, pale colors. Probably - camera limitations?...5
very cute and well posed !!!, I just would like to see this with a bit more contrast and maybe a tiny tiny bit of dodging/burning to bring out the textures. right now the colors are very washed out. Sometimes its a good idea to have black blacks and white whites. Good luck ;)
Nice pose by the child. Could have done with using more candles for the lighting as its a bit too dark on my monitor. Also its a bit too soft in the focus.
