The background is distracting and the composition is too centred, it would be nice to have her whole shadow included in the picture. I like the expression of joy in her face.
Like the expression on the subjects face and the use of the sunlit patches on the floor. The composition is a bit too centered for me - might be nice to see a bit more of the shadow.
a nice shot, but the background and exposure rather bring it down. i wish there was a little more light and brightness on her face and arms, less yellow relection from the floor. the background is quite distracting, and would benfit from boing blurred. either shooting with a wider aperture, or using post processing to blur it. there's a good tutorial on blurring backgrounds in the learning section of dpc.
nice idea, but poor execution. this is right in line with "ok-everyone-smile" type snapshotting. a different perspective, shot with your subject focused on practicing rather than posing, would have greatly enhanced this shot.
