 Oh, joy!
Thank you all so much!!
My gorgeous model's name is Maggie, she just turned 16 and not only is she charming, but also incredibly bright and sweet! I am just that lucky to have great friends with awesome kids!
Thank you to my team, who helped me with the choice. :-)

Voted earlier coming back to comment.

Love the warm tones throughout this portrait shot! The golden highlights on her hair from the backlighting, the gorgeous bokeh circles, and the warm hues compliment the action/mood going on here of this girl lost in thought. She is daydreaming; the viewer sees it not just in her pose but in the feel/mood of the environment around her.

The only thing that would make this even better for the challenge would be a bit more rim lighting. Delightful.

What a gorgeous portrait! Natural and spectacular at the same time. I love the reflective mood and the bokeh background is stunning.

YES .. !!! ..
totally grabbed me when i opened this image ..
absolutely loving the girl's expression ..
so thoughtful and almost sad ..
which give this such an emotive feel ..
the bokeh is a breathtaking background to her apparently somber mood .. it looks excited and happy .. which is a great contrast to the girl .. just my take of course .
if this doesnt ribbon i'll be very surprised ..
altho i've said that about more than three images in this challenge ..
so many great photos .. good luck . :)

My 10. Beautiful face and lighting. Some may mark you down for too much shadow detail but yours is a great interpretation.
