Is it raining in here?

My youngest niece, Amy. She was 2 years old in this picture. It was a very busy shoot!!

For me the processing works...but would be fun to see this shot presented with other processing or perhaps no processing????

I like the effect, myself, but I also like Shar's idea to present the photo in several different forms.

Her expression is really strange. Was she angry or sad ?

@Calusarus: Neither she is concentrating and intrigued with the umbrella

I do like the outline of the child and the lightness of the umbrella fading away.

I'm inclined to believe I wouldn't like the straight shot as much as this version --but then I haven't seen it so who knows? Like Marlen I think this has a commercial look --like you might find in an advertisement or on a greeting card. I think the processing is a function of the intended audience. Here anything goes.
