This is the same little girl I posted a picture of 'watching the waves'. Her mother got her attention and told her to look at me. I love her beautiful eyes!! Hope I didn't mess this up.

Hi Karen

Effective tight framing in this superb b&w portrait of the Filipino girl. A natural looking smile with good dof. Tfs!

Yes, she is very beautiful kid, but photo is great too: shadows, contrast, and clearness.

Hi Karen; Wow, beautiful black and white. Beautiful little girl with beautiful eyes.
Trudy

Hi Karen,

Hello Karen
I like it.. no mess up here! The BW really suites this shot! I love the wispy hair blowing into her face.. I agree her eyes are gorgeous!

Tricia

Excellent! How could you have messed it up? I love it. This little girl resembles my 10-year old stepdaughter with the black hair and dark skin. Love this portrait!
Tracy

Little GREAT beauty you captured here. I like her smile and the way she is looking at you. I, also, like the lighting and the way you cropped it. TFS

Lorena

Daer Karen,
already she is a great model enough value to holding good in commercial photos...
but in my feeling, her face is beautiful but not natural,,,of course the girl in her age already has an adult feeling, but I don't know it is good or not...
thank you,
Akihisa

Good clear shot Karen, nicely lit and well balanced - great work! You've done well with the PP work on her face, too, was it noise reduction on a cropped photo? Nice job.
