 My Daughter with sunglasses on. I know kids don't do well but what the heck, when it's all said and done I still have a beautiful daughter and a funny pic of her. by the time I got the catch lights were I wanted them she started screaming that she had enough, hence no photo with her smiling, she wasted all the smailes on pics with no lights in the glasses.

Post Challenge:
Thanks for all the great comments, glad people got a charge out of it as I did. I really wish I would have shot this sooner than 1hr before the challenge deadline as I would have doen some things different. I was trying to convey a superstar/cinamatic feel to the photo. Scored a bit lower than I had hoped but oh well, I still love it. BTW, she really is a fat little girl, it's not the camera putting the pounds/kg on her. Thanks again, I'm off to change her diaper now...

This is kick-butt/take names. Ain't nobody gonna be messin' with this young lady. And I'm betting when she gets older she's gonna love this shot.

And again - brilliant image. I had a feeling it wouldnt score great but it was sure tops in my book. If this were my image of my kid it would be printed huge on canvas. Excellent work. Should have at least broken 6.

THis looks overexposed

A cute idea, but the execution of it is not thrilling me. I think it is the dead-on view and the overall brightness of the image.

Nice framing, nice high key lighting. Is the reflection in the glasses an umbrella light? Looks like starts or birds or something... it works.
