I would agree that the lighting is a bit harsh, bit I like the composition and posing in the photo and its nice overall. The child has a very cute expression on his face.

I don't know about the lighting. It looks okay to me on this monitor -- i really like hte brightness of her t-shirt and the atypical kid pose she is in.

Cute kid! Her shirt works great against the white background - it screams energy - which I bet she has plenty!

Great expression, nice colors.

I'll agree with the others that the lighting is a bit harsh, but I'm sure they will love the gifts. I sometimes forget that I'm way more critical on my own shots than non-photographers would ever be. I say that now, but we'll see when those canvas prints arrive tomorrow...

Cute child, love the point of view - the lighting is a 'bit' harsh.

What a beautiful smile! The burst of color from the girl's shirt certainly keeps the focus on the little girl and her cute face.

I just LOVE hwer smile that you haver captured..... Also love the white background against the color of her in this great pose.....

Wonderful portrait, so natural!!

Love the colorful t-shirt on white. The light is a bit flat but her expression is great and she seems at ease.

No, I don't think the lighting's flat. White is so hard to work with IMO. I love her colorful wardrobe, and she just looks so happy and at ease.

Maybe just the slightest bit overexposed, but I tend to chicken out 'cause I blow out all too often.

What a face!!!!!

Nice flesh tones and colors. Flat, a ;little but still has nice modeling.
12/01/2007 12:14:35 PM
So cute!!

Really like the angle, the colorful t-shirt against the white BG. I am no expert in lighting but I think this is very effective at making the BG totally textureless. She looks like she's floating... Is it just me or there is dark spot in the top left corner?

I really like her expression and how contageous it is. Perhaps the lighting on the face is a bit strong as was saaid before.

i think this is brilliant.

brilliant joyful happy photograph !! .. love the perspective and the colours . its just such a 'clean' shot .. brilliant in fact .. i think i know wot you mean about the flat look, but i dont think its suffering at all .. :)

Man, you're so lucky to have all these kids around! Beautiful picture, just right for a gift. I don't think the light is flat, except that maybe there's a bit too much of it on her face, just a smidgeon?
