Hope you like it :).

Dawn, this is reeeeally good! Your daughter is indeed beautiful. And you so captured the "bummer" spirit she looks like she is feeling. Congratulations on front page honors with this deserving photography!

Perfect for this challenge. B&W works nicely with the drama of the shot. Her expression is perfect.

I like the photo but i think if you had removed the blowing out window frame it would have been much better.....just my though....

I like the framing in this shot. Good focus and lighting. The model did well with the facial expression. Some actual raindrops could have added to the shot, but overall, I really like it.
