It looks really good. I would be interested to see the original but I suspect the Lomo treatment has enhanced the portrait.

For comparisons sake here's the original:

My Angel

knickers, without going into a long tirade on the lomo effect, I'll go against my better judgment and link to the Wikipedia article on it.

The original was also a good shot (was it completely unprocessed? It looks like you have a soft filter on, which works well. What the Lomo work does is create an image that is more punchy - often it makes a naff shot exciting but here you could unashamedly present either.
