Tried out my new Sigma 30mm 1.4 for the challenge. Basic editing included adjustments to saturation, curves and contrast, then noise ninja applied, border applied and resized.

Great portrait! The crop just chops her head. I'm not sure if it's bad, maybe it helps the intimacy of the photo, but maybe it would look better with just a little more headroom.
Good idea for foreground bokeh. The out of focus guitar neck/hand leads us to look at the little girl playing the guitar. I wonder if having the little girl look at the guitar intently, like she's really playing away, would also work. My one nitpick is that the image looks a tad "over noise-ninjaed" (or similar noise removal software). (7)
