[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I saw this cute girl walking with her mother and asked if I could photograph her hair...I had about a minute to take the shot so I couldn't play with the aperture too much. I am still trying to balance the background blur with the depth of field. In this caseI like it because the eyes stand out and that's what this picture is all about.

I love that natural light that you have going here Roger! also the unposed smile is just the best! BW is so super for shots like this! What a cute kid! What hair! I thought mine was unruly! Nice details

Delightful smile and wonderful eye contact here Roger, good DOF although you could still have gone with a smaller aperture!

The light is almost perfect, I just think if you'd moved more to the right and had her face a little more away from the sun, you could have avoided the strong shadow of her eyelashes on her nose and the OE on her cheek and nose.

Once again, Roger, you show your ability to capture people with incredible spontaneity and freshness. The hair and a humorous and interesting contrast with her wonderful smile and face.
