The Girl

She even has a name, Lilia. She is such a good sport sitting for me whenever I need her to. She is always patient and works with me well, heck she doesn't even mind if it takes me 1/2 hour or more to get what I think I want. I just had to get some shots with those tights, they are so freaking cute!!!!!
I wanted to say Thank You to everyone who comments on my blog for your super kind comments day after day. You all are the best, and make POTD such a great experience.

The technical stuff:
32mm
1/80
ISO 400
f/4.4
I played with levels a bit to brighten it up, and ran Noiseware.

I love the color one. Her tights are so awesome. I think I need a pair of those too. Her eye contact with the camera is what gets me the most. Its almost looks like she is looking through the lens to you...beautiful.

The tights are fab, but the BnW really brought out her catchlights big time! It makes the photo stand out even more.

The focus on your shot of Lilia is so sharp! I love both versions. Not only are those tights adorable, so is she. I just love those freckles. And her name is beautiful. We know a girl (around your DD's age) by that name and I've always loved it.
And your new blog banner is awesome!
