Exposure 0.001 sec (1/800)
Aperture f/1.8
Focal Length 50 mm

TIA!!!!


Mods: I thought this was the best place to put this, if not please move it to the correct place!!

It is a very sweet photo. Just me, but I would try a tighter crop. Your daughter looks so sweet and I would love for her to grab the attention.

it is a very moving and adorable image! I am sure it will hold up well to a vote. I like the toning. I might like a tighter crop as suggested and shift her out of the center of the frame
