 This was taken at a restaurant in Toowoomba whilst we were out shooting for Ansel Adams. The thing about Zoe is that she is a truly beautiful child and unbelievably intense. She was unhappy because her brother had taken her seat by the window and something else as well. I think this photo captures her sensitivity well. I certainly konw that expression well enough!

Hey Melenthia, it's been quite a while alright and it's great to hear from you. There seems to be quite a few new faces on DPC and most the big guns from my days seem to have moved on.

Since my break, I've entered a few challenges and DPC is as addictive as ever! Nic (Manic35) and I are about to come across to the 'Darkside' (ie Canon) anytime soon with the purchase of a 40D, can't wait! I see you have been very busy on the site, 266 entries! Where has the time gone?! BTW, love your Free-Study entry 2008-04, that's my kind of photography.

Hey, welcome back! Long time no see! She's growing up entirely too quickly, isn't she?

Direct eye contact between child and viewer promotes the theme nicely. Good luck in the challenge.

This is beautiful. I wish that white (chair?) weren't behind her on the left.

Aw, really cute. Her sensitivity really does show in this picture too. I was a sensitive child :)

Beautiful shot. I do love the lighting although you may get grilled for the shadowed side of her face. Good job.
