I like the photo the water in the foreground adds a nice little effect with the water drops. As well great job on making the little girl completely in focus with the water not distracting the eyes from the subject. (if that makes sense, just came back from camping kinda tired )

Hey Lavalamp,
This is really nice. Great moment and good framing. My only critique here would be that it would have been nicer to have the sun in front of her or off to the side rather than behind her as it appears by the shadowed face. Once again, fill flash would have helped here, or having her turn more to the side. But still a nice shot because of the timing and moment.

Would the fill be speckled by shadows of the water? Would the water act like lenses and make brighter spots? Could be interesting.

I like the reflective (as in she is reflecting upon her thoughts) and relaxed posture the girl has taken. Very nice. I don't mind the shadow on her face at all. I think it lends to the picture. Nice and clear shot! (What is fill flash?)
