Hannah age 5

I just found this picture of my daughter, taken at my brother's wedding last year - just doing the album now! - and wanted to share it. It was a quick grab shot with a bit of fill flash as the day was sunny.

Hi Mike, -- I'm really enjoying the innocence of the shot, the backlight from the sun is great in how it is making the rain drops shine and haloing Hannah. Nice composition and balance to the shot as well. These spontaneous shots can be some of the best ones.

Oh, that's wonderful!

The innocent joy of the child is infectious. As already mentioned, the backlighting works extremely well.

Thanks for sharing!

Thank you everyone -

Fahim, your are of course right. When she smile it's like the sunshine

Robert - I confess to being focused on the light through the leaves and water and her smile. Missed the feet...
