Candid sot of my granddaughter, near sunset, mid-January. ISO400, 200mm L, f/4, 1/251s. Original was brightened slightly and automatic noise reduction using NeatImage.

Comments appreciated.

Look at the setting sun color on her face ... magical!

As candid - Great!
However, forward arm is getting very large. Taller Photo angle would help and possibly add a little more "look" to her eyes - if that were possible.

The photo will be a loved possession for a long time.

I tried a lot of different crop solutions and this one seemed most pleasing to me. I think the arm is accentuated somewhat by the lens - This is only slightly cropped from the full frame. I really like the long lens for getting candid close-ups of small children. It allows the child to focus on something besides the camera.

Yes, seefutlung, some people like perfect dentition! But that is what being 6 years old is all about - being a little snaggletoothed.

There seems to be a very slight green cast in the shadows on her face.

The crop is a little too tight with her knuckles just kissing the frame.

Very nice pose with good exposure. The lighting seems to be very nice and soft, which is very appropriate for this subject. Background is well blurred, but I am not very comfortable with the particular colors involved - in my opinion they are not in harmony.

Very beautiful subject, and she looks very happy!

Could use a warming filter to get rid of the green-blue cast on her face. You can apply one in PS if you have it.
