Hi Shane, your grandaughter is gorgeous, bless her. Youve captured her eyes beautifully, really nice and sharp.

There are a few minor points for me that could be improved, on all three there are harsh shadows, using bounced flash would get rid of these and enhance the shot. On number 2 id like the shot to have been more cropped or shot further out to include her fingers and rest of her arm.
Number 3 has a really nice background and love the bright colours, however I dont like the processing on her skin, its overdone for me and she looks like a dolly. I prefer babies skin untouched and natural but thats only my opinion.

Again I love the focus of her eyes especially in number 2. Welldone from me :)

good focus is fine
1 and 2 are to some extent background obvious
but oh that no 3...just the job...and the flash is more controlled
cheers

Thanks for the cc Louise and Geof. For some reason i insist in pulling up that white thing on my flash instead of bouncing off the ceiling

My take
#1 Shadow under chin
#2 She wouldn't stop still so a bit too close
#3 That i did it a little to much and the skin is too orange
