Ok, so it's been several months since i've been on the site and posted and stuff. I'm back from Iraq now though, so I should have a little more options as far as shooting some pictures goes... those geese were starting to bore me lol!

higabyte,

Didn't you just get married? If not, I'm sorry.

Beauty is not in the eye of the beholder but the angle in which you shoot the picture.

It is certainly pushing for the cute factor. It is not quite sharp (but a diffuse effect can be good for portraits) and there is some odd colouring (but I have to say that I think it works well here).

However, the thing she is probably going to hate when you pull the photo out in years to come is that you didn't wipe the dribble off her chin!

First of all, welcome home! Very cute shot of your daughter. Can you tell us a little more about the lighting on this one? Did you do any post processing? Which lens did you use (focal length, f/stop, ISO). Nice work!

Cute! She has very cute eyes, and the dribble is cute too.

Hi I'm new and was just looking at all the pictures that are posted. I think this is a great shot. I loved the dribble.

Can't believe I didn't notice this before, but welcome back! Glad to see you made it back safely.

Cute picture of your daughter, although that yellow cast to the picture does kind of bother me. She's got gorgeous eyes.
