Yup -- Anita pegged it. I borrowed the neighbor again. I did it in the arts challenge in January, and so I had to try it again.
I wasn't sure of what I was doing, and she was very patient as I was playing with the flash. I really need to be able to "see" the results a little better in my mind. Actually -- that was the probably. I could see the results in my mind -- it just didn't cooperate and show it on the screen! It was lots and lots and lots of trial and error.
Thanks for all the wonderful comments!
Here are a couple of outtakes:

Very very nice, Wendy. I love the added interest that the banister uprights lend the shadow, and the tones are quite lovely. This has a natural selective color look that is very effective and emphasizes the contrast between the girl and the shadow. Congratulations on the HM.
