I find this photo to be incredible–but just wish it was an older person. She’s so young that it feels like a sad photo for a child–a great photo for someone older–but maybe it’s just outside my comfort zone.
When covid first hit we were allowed to visit the grandkids by waving through the window. This photo captures that feeling.
Pray for better times ahead.
This is a remarkable portrait. The soft tones, lighting, and use of what looks like shooting through a rainy day window creates a mood of reflection as if your young grand daughter were pondering something in her mind. It’s not a typical portrait you see everyday. Nice job.
This is a window to our “cabin in the woods,” named Unplugged. It was freezing outside but we had the heat on inside, so the window was fogged up. I stood outside the door and asked her to look at me through the window. In the original, you can see my reflection, so I had to crop it tightly.
I agree with the others. This is a remarkable portrait. Your grand daughter looks to be in a reflective mood on a day when the weather outside the window might not be welcoming. Good capture.
Nice !!!
It works for me. A melancholy rainy day, nice departure from a standard portrait. A pubescent Mona Lisa?

She’s a very happy healthy 7-year-old that poses (naturally) for her grampy every once in awhile.
No matter the age, there’s something going on behind those eyes. It’s very expressive–and rather haunting.
I don’t want to reduce this to anything other than itself, but it reminds me of certain Pre-Raphaelite paintings.
Great composition!
Haunting eyes, such a powerful image. Love this.

Lovely, moody portrait.
Those eyes evoke so much. Not the eyes of a typical 7 year old. Did you show it to your grand daughter? If so, I am wondering what her reaction was.
I love this, I don’t think it looks like a sad photo, to me it seems like she’s in deep thought. Love the lighting as well.

Evocative of a spirit. The noise adds to the ethereal effect.
