My daughter waiting for a ride at the Mall of America. She had just gone on her 1st roller coaster ride. She loved it, although it doesn't show in the the shot. I'm not sure the reason for the furrowed brow in this shot because she was having a really good time.

That is her arm drapped over the wood cross bar on a fence. She just turned toward her "poopaw" while hanging onto the fence.

Thanks everyone for the kind comments, recommendations, and votes.

lovely...I like the way you cropped it...her connection to her surroundings is intriguing, draws my eyes in, and of course it helps that she is completely open and not posing...

This is a very good quality shot, shame she's looking out of the shot. Great focus and b&w conversion.

Impressive portrait - esp the eyes. That glove is a serious distraction though. So much potential without it. 6

Well she could be anyone really, but we have to trust you.
Now this is extremely delightful indeed, sharp, and lovely DOF, but why oh why you had to cut her head off with that border is beyond me, would of been a 10 if her head was in. 8

Fascinating capture. I like her intensity and serious look. I'm not sure what that is resting on the railing, at first glance I though it was her arm but realized not, unless she is double jointed. To my eyes it does not add anything to the context and I might have cropped this much tighter to her head.

That is a powerful stare. Such intensity in those young eyes. You may have pushed the processing on the eyes a tad for my taste, but still an excellent portrait.

Nice mono and the crop works very well for me.

Wow! What a face! Those eyes! Fabulous!

I'd have cropped it to maybe square to get rid of whatever that stuff is to the right of her.
LOVE this in BW. Beautiful.
