My niece Noemie (taken while I was visiting my sister in Oregon).
Crop, sat, bright, contrast. Removed a minor distracting piece of leaf from edge of fountain.

Post: Well, I didn't take too many digital pictures in 2005 (most were film). What I hoped would take this beyond snapshot is the zigzag line of the fountain. I do understand now, especially after seeing the other 2005 pics, why this got a 4. Eh, better luck next year ;-)
Thanks very much to those who commented, I really appreciate it.

cute capture, nice movement, color washed and dull, blacks good, whites need help, nice lines, lighting dull, soft on the focus, nice texture, overall not very interesting
Looks like she's having fun. It's a cute concept, but out of focus. Also not too crazy about the bricks and their color clash with her jacket. Frankly, the fountain is unattractive and, IMHO, detracts from what could be a charming image under the right circumstances.
