Very nice image. Although I think I would have liked to have seen the rule of thirds used here. Even if there is stuff in the background sometimes it can add to a shot. Lovely bright colors as well. I like it.

Very nice. There is a softness to this pictures that works very well with this little angel. She is beautiful and I love this capture. 9

this looks more like a pose than a candid shot.

delightful - the only downside is that post in the background, but hey, it's a candid.

Something weird is happening in her left eye: too much neat image or sharpening? Detail has been lost in her hair and her skin looks a bit plastic. However I like the brown vs green/blues - the colours are delicate and soft.

Nice portrait but too soft...the focus is not on her eyes...but on the heart instead.

Oooh. Nice capture (I love soft focus when done right) but I'm afraid that this is to 'posed' looking to score well in this challenge.

there's a subtle glow effect here that detracts from the candid feeling.
