A beautiful subject and a great shot. I like the glowing skin tones and her glistening eyes. Nicely composed with excellent colors. Good luck in the contest.

I do think she is cute. I like the little smile. It looks like she might be thinking about something funny. Maybe she was planning to trick granny. I found out a long time ago that getting a decent picture of a baby is not easy. You have to catch the baby at the right time. You did well here.

It's fun to see how much that cute little baby face has developed in the last two years. Her smile is the same :) I like how she has her little hand up to face in this shot.

Stella is very cute. Love her smile as she looks as you. Her outfit is a nice color to contrast with the darker background. Well focused and lighting is good.

This is a beautiful photo. The baby is obviously looking at someone that loves her and is smiling too. Wonderful clear shot with great coloring.
