Default Candid shot of my youngest child

This is a candid shot I took of my youngest daughter this weekend (She's #5 of 5 kids for me ) She's giving me a dirty look because she kept crawling to me, trying to get the camera, and every time she'd get close, I'd move back some.



1/125 @ f5.6
ISO 800

i think the image is pretty but maybe you shpuldn't have centered it so much,well that my opinion and if it's a candid of couse not everything is thought about before you capture the moment but overall i like it.

What a fantastic candid shot! She is a cutie and her expression is absolutely priceless!! I predict from this picture that she is going to be a handful!

I took a few shots following the rule of thirds more, and I don't think they worked as well as this one. I think this composition works because the focal point of it (her eyes) aren't right in the center. One thing that I think would make the picture better is not having a background that is so close in color to her hair next time.

She's already a real handful! As are my two other red heads. They're nuts sometimes, but they're hilarious.

Thanks for the comments everyone.

That look is priceless. I just see one of those "Seriously, let's talk. What seems to be the problem there dad?". Great cap.
