Beautiful picture. I love her smile. She's not letting confinement take away her happy spirit. Congratulations on your finish in the contest.

thanks so much again;
this was taken some weeks ago; thankfully, she doesn't suffer from the confinement,

Stella looks very happy staying at home, or maybe it is just this moment. (It can be a challenge to entertain a child for long periods especially at these uncertain times). You have captured her lovely smile very well and her doing some activity. Your image is clear and focused. Good entry for the contest Fred.

Poor Stella, but she doesn't look too bored in this photo. I can see that she likes to be photographed as well. Still it must be worse for children than for adults when they are not allowed to go out and play With other children.

I am sure you know that this isn't the best of photos because of the busy background, but I like very much how well you have captured the Expression in Stella's face. Good light and sharpness as well.

I think this is an all together Sweet and well taken candid photo.

You are more than welcome.

A very nice shot. Her expression is very good and I think that a slightly soft look is great on the faces of women and children. A very good composition with great colors.

A pretty good entry posted here into the competition during these trying times! Your fine, full and off-centre composition captures a nice and innocent expression. Wonder what's going on with the glass? Nicely done!
