Don't know why, when I was working on this snapshot, taken today during a family ceremony, I surprised myself singing this in my mind:
I feel pretty...
the well-known song from Leonard Bernstein's "West Side story".

I hope every girl in the world can feel as pretty as my daughter Flaminia during this sunny, pleasant, happy day...

Bonjour Antonella,

J'aime bien la pose naturel de ta fille. Son regard, son petit sourire coquin, cela donne un petit quelque chose a la photo. On peut dire que c'est une bonne photo étant donné les circonstances (snapshot) La lumière est bien. Félicitations au modèle. Merci de partager.

"I feel pretty" makes me think of Adam Sandler and Jack Nicholson in "Anger Management".
You have a very pretty model there, and she's posing very well. The result is a top notch image, nicely composed with the exception of the chopped-off toes, with well-chosen depth of field and pleasant bokeh. That piercing looks painful. The jpeg artifacts along the edge of the left arm are quite unfortunate. I like the intense stare.

Hi Spacebar!
Amazing girl. Wonderful face. Fantastic eyes. Original jeans!
Cheers!

Ciao Antonella.
No doubt, she looks pretty.!
Flaminia is a reall Modern teenager girl.
Very nice picture of her, but pity her shoe is not complete in it.
Best wishes from Jan

ciao cara,

Before I even read what you said in your caption, my first thought was Nataly Wood! So, I guess I was in tune with your thoughts also.

Ancora voglio vedere le foto diversi della tua vita e citta' cara! Mostrarle!

bacio,

Riccardo

Dear Antonella Fish!

Nice colors.
Beautiful Flaminia.
TFS!

Ciao Antonella, gran bella posa per la Flaminia rosso fiammante, complimenti a te e alla modella, brava, ciao Silvio

Good night Antonella,

Your daughter is a pretty and young girl!

Gostei muito da fotografia, das cores, do afiado. A luminosidade e o contraste também estão muito bons.

Parabéns e um abraço,
Sergio

:) tuesday

:) I did a WS and I hope you don't mind.

Ciao Antonella e ben ritrovata. Una nitidissima Flaminia su uno sfondo giustamente sfocato. Grande idea il foulard variopinto, stessi toni dei capelli, a contrastare col jeans. Espressione enigmatica.

Roberto

Beautiful model! She's a natural! The pose is good, easy and relaxed. The DOF and background bokeh is nice, the levels well managed.
I do think you went a little too far with the noise reduction and sharpening process, there are some too-smooth textures and jagged edges, but overall the impression of this is very nice.
What was the lighting source from the left? Did you use reflector or was there just a sunlit object?

Boa noite Antonnella
Flaminia is a very interesting girl and when i look her in your photos ( and she has very beautiful photos herself, I really agree)I feel her like a representative girl of someone with values. What I like more is to feel she is really young and live it. She ´s not a old young lady. Even in the she use colours and do her photos and the way she sportrait her friends. The power of being young. To be just pretty is not enough ...to her. Your photo shows it all, for me.
My regards
teresat

Ah que la photographie devient agréable quand on dispose d'un aussi séduisant modèle ^^ .
Une bien jolie créature sylvestre ...pour ne pas dire une elfe la jeune Flaminia.

Merci de partager Antonelle , quel est l'appareil que vous utilisez ?

ciao Antonella,
Flaminia e' molto fotogenica ed il tuo ritratto la coglie in una posa naturale
bene gestito,forse un po' troppo sharpness,
ma senza dubbio una foto da mettere nell'album dei ricordi per i tempi a venire.

ciao sERGIO

An excellent pose Antonella and a very lovely model. Oversharpening aside, nicely composed with good colour and skin tones. Nice work,
David

Bonjour Antonella
Un portrait très bien inscrit en vertical,le sujet est bien net sur les yeux et c'est bien exposé là où il faut,j'ai juste un petit regret,les taches blanches de l'arrière plan surexposées mais cela n'enlève rien à la qualité de cette image.
Bonne soirée
Cordialement
Gildas
