 Vergennes VT, French Heritage Day

Kids were playing with bubbles, Isabelle making the bigger ones, this little girl playing in the bucket, I got situated & took the shot after Isa made her bubble, both kids clueless to the fact I was taking pictures.
Here's Isa & the big bubble "machine":



I was able to take only 2 shots before the little girl's mom came to fetch her and I got lucky with this image!

I know this is a tad bright off her right arm/shoulder, but that's the most editing I could do without her getting too dark...
I had no plans to enter this challenge but after I saw this shot, I couldn't resist! So despite the less than perfect technical image, I think the capture itself makes up for it!! (to some degree) :)

I don't speak French, had to go to Free Translation.com to get it right (LOL!) in honor of the day (7/14) & the little girl & her mom , obviously French Canadian neighbors, as you should have heard her wail in French when she had to stop playing in the bubbles!!

EDIT: Crop, sharpen, adjust lighting, resize

An exciting take on what could of been 'another kid shot'.
This is different and vivid and much more special.
