One of the 200+ shots of kids in Halloween costumes in this challenge, I suspect :) I tried to get my daughter to look "evil," but this was the best she could come up with. Out of 50 shots or so, this was my favorite expression tonight before we went trick-or-treating.

Great shot! Instantly engaging - I almost laughed out loud when this popped up on my screen. The only downfall I see is that it looks a touch too neat-imaged (not enough natural noise.) But that's a nit. Excellent work!

I'm nearly through with voting, and quite frankly I am really tired of kid shots. However, this is a very well captured portrait...clean and crisp. Although I will say that, even though she's dressed as a witch, I would have prefered it without the broom.

I won't hold it against you that she's a kid :)

Cute. Face is a little orange. Good composition.

Excellent use of the landscape frame. Great exposure. Even better expression. Nice color, lighting and depth. By far one of favorites and tied for a first place vote.

Cute expression. Skin looks a little overedited.
