Growing up
by autumnlight
My thinking behind this, is of a young girl who disassociates herself from the Christmas tree as she no longer wishes to be looked on as a child.

I think this is your very best photo of your niece, she is very grown up and I agree with Giulio re the explanation, just wonderful Maria.

This photo really works because it has an association with a story. The viewer can make their own story from the elements that you have provided.
A really nice piece of work.

This is beautiful!
When I first viewed it without looking too close it made me think of a young girl dreaming of being a dancer.

I think she has a rather enigmatic look on her face. I think this is a shot that can tell many different stories, or evoke many differing responses in the viewer, which is why it's a great capture Maria, the essence of photogrphy

Beautiful!
I like it a lot, Maria!
Lovely compo and "vintage" tones... Her expression really fits on your explanation

This is a well taken shot. I like the nice lights on her face and the shot is well composed. Your are lucky you have a perfect model.
