Looking at the shot again, the eyes and lips have a purplish cast. Some slight adjustments to the charming young baby lady's skin and eyes, to warm them tones up a bit. Otherwise I still stand by my first comment, that I really like this shot and everything else works great here. Really hoped this would do better. But you have a wonderful shot. Must be printed big :)

there are lots of swing captures where the subject looks this good, but few that capture the background elements so perfectly, from suburban dwelling to sun.

Awww, she's sweet. I like the angle and expression on her face.

This is a well composed (and focused) shot. The heavy background color saturation and the softness of the colors in the foreground (and the smile) are a great contrast. The sunburst is placed nicely as not to interfere with the subject. I hope this scores well.

Aww, shes adorable! I love everything about this photo, especially the background color, but the left upper side looks washed out and that light next to her shoulder is a little distracting.

I like the tilt and sun shining through. The background with the fall color and the house gives it a nice sense of "home".

Lovely capture of a great looking child, the tilt of the background is very distracting and looks out of place IMHO.

Fantastic moment and good use of DOF. The baby's face still feels a little flat, and the eyes don't quite pop which would have made this something even more special. 6

Very nice balance of Ambient with Flash! Not easy to do, and the sun catch in the background only attests to your timing. Great shot.

I really like these kind of shots. Love the odd angle, the color sgive a great fall feel to it, nice clarity on the child and the sun peeking through adds a nice element. Bumping up to8.
