Here you go Megan, for the people who's fingers are too tired to click once..

Actually, I quite like it. Compositionally, I wish you could have gotten more of her legs in the frame. The knee hanging in mid air is a little distracting, but not bad.
The dof is nice.
The colors are a little too saturated for my taste. Just looking through your stream, if you can get the colors closer to the angled shot of the little girl on the pathway, you would be golden. I like color pop, but I also like the tones a little more muted, and clean, like the one I referenced. Its just personal taste though.

Is there anything in particular you had a question about regarding this image?

I love it. it's a great shot with great colors, DoF and expression!
I do agree that it would have been better without the pink knee, maybe try and crop it a bit.
