Hair and scratches intentionally left, appreciate your thoughts.

Thanks for looking,

Bob

Very cute expression. Keeping the scratches and stray hair is the right choice. It gives the image a feeling of authenticity. The scratches tell a story, which is when photography is at its best. Congratulations on a great portrait.

I might consider turning up the whites a little or touching the contrast. To me it looks a little flat.

Thanks for everyone's kind comments. I'm torn between as-is versus a tad lighter, maybe I'll let her mom decide

Thanks again,

Bob

I'd say go a little lighter, but you'll have to play with it and see what prints best.
Lovely pic.

Nice shot Bob...

As soon as I started thinking "well you could...." I looked again and thought:

NOPE, let it be!

Mongrel,

Thanks, and

I posted another candid on Photo Critique and received about the same range of differing preferences - we are a diverse community.

Having taught programming and software design for a number of years, I learned to appreciate the adage "No program is ever done." I believe those of us who rather enjoy processing digital images are afflicted in the same manner.

Looking again, I believe I'll stay pat. I could tinker forever and I don't think, given my skill level, any marginal improvement would be that significant.

Thanks again for your and all others' comments.

Regards,

Bob
