Lovely detail in the left eye, but maybe just a little soft in the right eye, anyway still a fine portrait of a bonny wee lassie.

Very nice image. If you are specifically looking for critique on images, in the future you should post them in the critique section :-)

It is a nice portrait.

As noted, only one eye is in sharp focus. If you wanted to include both eyes, you'd either have to make sure your sensor plane was parallel to the same points on both eyes, shift the plane of focus to a point between the eyes or stop down to something that would include both eyes and still allow the nice out-of-focus transition. My quick estimate of your location wrt the subject and my phone app suggests you have about 10mm of DoF at f1.4 on the 85mm lens, but that would expand to 22mm at f2.8, which would cover both eyes well in your portrait. Not knowing the Sigma 85/1,4, I couldn't say how that would affect the quality of the bokeh, but it might bear some experimentation.

Thanks for sharing, nonetheless. You should be pleased with your efforts.
