My friend invited me to join his family to see his son playing. Lots of kids and lots of fun. That's one of his daughters.

Thanks Penny, Mary Anne, and Doug. Appreciate your comments.

I agree with the others on the bokeh. It's so bright that it's almost a natural high key image yet it doesn't overwhelm the subject. -Doug

Yes...I like the bokeh also, but that pink headband with the sparkly sequins really adds a nice touch. --Mary Anne

This is different - almost like she surrounded by ice sculptures, yet she looks so relaxed and natural. Penny Street

Thanks CJ, the bokeh is what I like about this pic. Brent, it's somewhat the reverse. See, her brother is on the heavy side so their parents try to get him involved in sports. Christakis, I guess she was a little shy. Thanks lady and gents for your comments. Cheers.

What a sweet picture aam -she's a cutie munching on her food and concentrating on her brother, and the background is gorgeous - nice bokeh with that lens! CJ

Excellent picture but she doesn't look amused. Was he so boring?

Very nicely done Aam. Makes me a little sad for this young girl though- I hope she's involved in some sort of game play too so the family can watch her as well? ~Brent

This is fantastic with that background, aam! ~Lydia

Thanks, D.T. Love the bokeh here too :)

Now we're talking! This is wonderul aam. I was hoping there would be some images like this in this challenge. I love the bokeh in this shot. ~dtallakson
