I'm going through the entries, stopping at those images I feel have had the benefit of an unconventional eye and dwelling a little longer to try to see and appreciate what you saw. This is one of those images.
Positives: Nicely made - the expression on the girl is priceless and your title led me through the image. The tight framing defines your story well.
Critical stuff: The blurred dog is a little bothersome but I can see that was out of your control.
