This was taken for the DPL Album challenge. The background was purposely blown out in-camera to create negative space for text. Even without that purpose I think it works for this particular subject/theme.

Thanks to those who commented.

You know, I thought I'd commented on this during voting, but apparently I do a lot of mental commenting and forget to come back. I was glad to see you entered this - I think you have an outstanding talent for photographing people in real settings and this was one I quite liked when I first saw it. It makes me smile - she looks slyly impish and radiates confidence. Quite a joyful portrait!

Nicely captured, framed and croped. Solid image and no background distractions lets the view focus in on her beauty and pose. Good Luck. 7.

Elegant framing therein. The light background compliments the eye whites too. Nice moment you captured. 8
