YES .. !!! ..
totally grabbed me when i opened this image ..
absolutely loving the girl's expression ..
so thoughtful and almost sad ..
which give this such an emotive feel ..
the bokeh is a breathtaking background to her apparently somber mood .. it looks excited and happy .. which is a great contrast to the girl .. just my take of course .
if this doesnt ribbon i'll be very surprised ..
altho i've said that about more than three images in this challenge ..
so many great photos .. good luck . :)
