 I doubt this will win any big scores. But it's one of my favorites from the year. A friend said she looked like she was practicing to be the next Clara and I loved it.

I think this would have worked better in profile, so we can see both her and the doll's faces. Still an endearing capture.

So sweet - she looks so inquisitive. Wish I could see her eyes but don't know if that would have taken away from the shot - mho

a nice job of lighting - the girl is very pretty but i wonder if a slightly different angle so we could see a bit more of her face and her interaction with the nutcracker (more profile) would have come off even a bit better
