I took this yesterday and have just been playing around with some edits. Wanted to share and see what anyone thought. Thanks for looking and I appreciate comments as well.

That is a lovely capture and a very nice pose. She is so pretty too. Looks nice with the border too and the sketch one is also nice. Thanks for sharing with us.

Thanks for your kind words Jake. I think I'm going to print the sketch one as a gift for her.

Hello Jadara, I don't think I've seen your work before but I'll be looking out for it in the future. Dreamer is quite charming. Is this a friend, neighbour, sister, stranger, it doesn't really matter, the point is though there does seem to be a relationship between she and the camera, and the sketch version accentuates the sparkle in her eyes, good job

Beautiful shot, and I like the post processing. The sketch is my favorite

She's a pretty young lady. You did a great job photographing her too. Nice going Jadara!

Thanks for the comments. I am so happy you all think it's good. To answer Beachcomber, she is my daughter-in-law. The look of serenity on her face is amazing when you know there are 2 six year olds, 2 four year olds, and a nine month old just outside the frame. LOL. She is the best gift my son ever gave me.

The sketch is definitely my favorite. Thanks Mike.

The sketch is very cool looking to me. The texture of it seems to really "pop".
