I'm very pleased with all the comments, thank you. Bella loves to have her picture taken, for some reason she does not look 2 1/2 in this photo. Here is another version, but it has soft light blend layer.
Thanks again for all the comments.

This is beautiful! The only thing I don't like about it is that it is in 13th place instead of being in the top 3 where it belongs! But this is a photo that is done in a way that will be treasured long after this challenge is forgotten.
Well done. Glad to see you score well with this. And isn't amazing how the camera can almost get you a preview of what they will be like a couple of years from now? My girl turns 4 in November but you would never guess it in most of her images. Anyways - lovely image. You done good! ;)
She is.
Great use of the Overexposure to enhance the photo, which is what i have been looking for. Simple photo that definitely works.
One of the Best........
This little cutie looks awfully familiar. but she looks far from awful. Beautiful image. For the challenge I think it could have been pushed a bit brighter in editing to really nail the challenge. But - this is a keeper for sure. Print worthy and one I would be proud to have of my daughter.
