I like the concept and the nice close crop but the over exposure on the cup kind of detracts from the impact that the image could have. Nice eye.Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??

Dana,
I like this alot.I see so many different ways to look at this. I think the mug shows with the smile the mood of the child.
She's a kid, the BIG mug says it all... Whatever is inside is...Yummy.I like the expression of her face.This is the strength of the image AND the best lighting.
I'm drawn to the lovely glow light on her face.Her eyelashes are very beautiful,detailed.
I'm no expert, I may be wrong...But,I feel the cup is overpowering the girl.
What would you think of framing it differently?
thanks for the suggestions Rick. I never think about these things until someone mentions them..lol. Twas orange juice and the mug used to belong to her daddy when he was a little boy. I guess it would be considered an antique. I may try some more next time she is here.
