Your submission must be taken after the challenge is announced and before the deadline, based on the Current Server Time (US Eastern Standard Time) displayed at the bottom of every page on this site. You must ensure that your camera date and time are correctly set to your local time zone before shooting your entry. If the date recorded in your original image file is not within the specified challenge dates, your entry will be disqualified -- NO exceptions!
Very cute image and+ lighting. The dedicated look on her face to get the cupcake open is great. I do wish you made use of the full 640 pixels though. And I'm sorry, but I do have to comment about the date on the photo. Having your camera print the date on your photo can completely destroy a good photo. It did in the film days too, but it was necessary for those who wanted to keep track of when they took the picture. Now, in the digital age, that and much more is stored in the EXIF infor of 99% of the digital cameras out there, thus eliminating the need to have it ruining the photo. I would definitely recommend removing that option from the camera for the challenge photos, and really for all photos that you take. It's just not worth it to ruin such a good photo with something that you can't remove. You can always add it as a layer in photoshop if you want, but then it can be removed too. Just my .02.
What a cutie! I'm sure you are probably getting dinged for the time stamp and the size. Don't let it get to you. Go ahead and turn off the time stamp on your camera and then keep playing with your pictures to learn to resize them to the full 640 width.
As far as the picture goes, I love that she is so intent on the cupcake. It all appears to be a bit out of focus, which some poeple don't like. Keep trying though, with such a cute model and such a good eye, you will go far.
Cute shot - nice backlighting, and the background isn't distracting. I think it'd be better if you'd turn off the date feature of your camera. I'm also unclear as to how it pertains to the 'Shapes' topic.
This is a sweet image - but I don't see a specific shape that you are trying to capture. If it is the cupcake - you should have focused it on the cupcake (and gotten rid of the date stamp!!!!) Sorry, but I have to give this a 3
