I am usually not much of one for portraits (to many come to close to snapshots for my taste) but this one with the backlighting, the control of DOF, the individual strands of her hair...marvelous. Well done.

Very nice piece of work, You can feel the sence of wonder

Such a beautiful shot. You have done an excellent job of capturing the moment.

I also like the soft focus and rule of thirds on this shot.

this is a sweet shot, i particularly like the light on the stray strands of hair. i hope she had luck finding grasshoppers and flowers.

This is such a precious capture of innocence. I love the lighting in this and the way it is playing on her strands of hair. Such a pretty little girl.

Wonderful lighting and love that look of wonder on her face...a magical capture.

aww this is such a nice shot, a truly magical moment caught!
VERRRRRY nicely done :)

uhh faving it too lol

Oh, I saw this in the voting booth and I gave it a very high score, which is something I rarely do on people photos. I thought the essence of innocence that we all have for a fleeting time in our life was captured very well.

Please ignore that c index. It's not indicative of how well this photo turned out...IMHO!

That's an amazing capture. So beautiful. Thank you for sharing. I can't understand that C-index, but it doesn't count, I think. Keep up the good work.
