how would you pp this image?

This is one of the mwac ones :::WINK:::  Anyways, this is my girl on her 7th birthday...her idea with the fingers. The histogram's all the way to the right, but there's a lot of dark in the background...so I don't think it's waaaay underexposed. Maybe a click? I'm not sure what that white stripe in in the grass. hmmm...
So ... what's your process? My focus point was on her eyes...as much as possible.
metadata: 50mm at f/2.0; awb; iso 250; 1/1000 sec.

WEll...for me, first off, I'd straighten it...then...your turn.
THanks in advance...Paula

Cute shot, good DOF, not bad, just needs slight straightening, IMAGE/Rotate canvas, enter an amount.
As for the Lens flare, healing tool or clone tool will work.
Slight color correcting needed
Abit of Hue /sat and voila.

Nicely done

It's not extremely underexposed.  Play with levels and add contrast and get the color warmer, bring up the saturation.  I would play with it, but I am not at my home computer.

Nice vignette Mike, I would still warm it up a touch, but it could be the monitor I am on.
I am a freak about little things.  I would clone out the white end of the branch by her pinky finger.

Mike, your color and contrast changes really show off this girls GORGEOUS hair. 
I am partial to brunettes, because I have dark brown hair.

Thanks, I tried to get rid of the lens flare, can be tricky.
Careful use of the healing and clone tools.
Color Balance, yellow, red adjusting sliders.
Used the burn tool to darken edges.
Curves I think.
