Thank you all for the very, very nice comments (and 6 favourites!).
The girl is my daughter Hilda.
I'm not very fond of titles that try to explain too much, so this is the reasoning behind the short title.Message edited by author 2006-09-11 17:04:42.

I love this. This is actually one of my favorites (not that I could vote!) It's just perfect IMO. I agree with Jdannels - be very proud of this.

If I could vote this higher than a 10 I would. I don't think I have ever added a favorite during a challenge, yours is the first. I just see no wrong, and have captured something simple and honest I can't explain. superior image, good luck.Message edited by author 2006-09-08 00:37:24.

This is by far my favorite portrait so far. Love the warm, subtle coloring. Her expression is so natural and direct. I like that stray hair across her eye. Very nice composition.

Nice color and simple composition. I don't care for the girl's expression though...she looks bored.

she looks a bit posed out.
A very telling portrait none the less
Would adjusting the white balance a little improve the skin tones?

Nice portrait, well-lit. Her expression is borderline quixotic, but in the end, it's enough of a smirk that I just think she's peeved and cynical.... As if I just tried to sell her on Santa Claus or something. A more descriptive or interesting title might have enhanced the package, or told me why she's making this face, or told me why her hair is uncombed. Good luck with this.
