Beautiful Pic!

She must've grown up to be a model or a movie star or something.

Charming!

I misread that as charming Sidelle Shear, and she is charming!

Lovely!

An absolutely beautiful child. I love the fact that she's placed her little hands in some very little pockets.

10/10

That is a remarkably great photo.

The dramatic shadow, the dark alley outlining the sunlit subject, the short depth of field. Either a lucky snapshot or a carefully posed masterpiece.

On top of that, we have a cute model with her eye set straight on the viewer.

Super!

Oh, My!

What a sweetie pie. This little girl is the prettiest child I've ever seen.
