Here's my (almost) 4 y/o daughter. Took it with nifty fifty. I love the catch light. f/1.8, 1/125, ISO 800, no flash. C & C are welcome.

Beautiful. I LOVE close-up shots of children, and this lens is a great choice!

I really, really like this shot. DOF is good, both eyes in focus and I like how the background plays in this one. Beautiful girl you got there.

This is a lovely shot - focus and exposure are spot on.

She's a realy cutie, and looks like an angel - I bet she's got you running round after her :)

That is one great shot of a beautiful girl.
I wish you hadn't clipped the top of her head, but that just personal preference.
Thanks for sharing, keep it up!

Such a great shot! The white balance is very nice considering it is done under incadescent or flourescent lighting. And what a cute girl!

Beautiful! If there's a nifty fifty club, I'm in! :D

Be careful at how NARROW that DOF is! Her left eye is in focus, her right is slightly out. But great shot! Love it! Beautiful child.

I also like the DOF although Kevin is right. The right eye is slightly out. I'm thinking maybe a little USM on that eye only could fix it up. But I love how the face is in focus and the rest of the body falls off.

What a beautiful little girl! You certainly captured her innocence in this wonderful image.
