My niece Isabelle came over to model for me so I could try out my new camera. She is five. I regret the lip gloss. I'd let her play in mine but I didn't know it was going to be so obvious.
This was my favorite of the day...her brown eyes are gorgeous.

nice portrait, for sure, but i'm curious as to what would make this image stand out to you as your best of the year.

There's a certain magic in her eyes. At first, I found the natural, and multiple catchlights in her eyes distracting, but after a few seconds absorbing her communication in her eyes, no longer see them as a distraction. (if that makes any sense) Precious shot, worthy of a nice mat & frame, on the wall, in her home.
Have you considered doing this in black & white?
Often the colors are a distracting element and our brains work harder studying them, then absorbing the emotions in an image.
