If that is her bottle of rock or shells, I suspect she is searching for a specific color or type of one or the other objects. Regardless, it is a very interesting image which peaks the curiosity of the viewer. B&W is perfect for the subject as well. Nicely done.

I can understand why you originally fell in love with the pose. It really captures the moment of the picture. I think that it works really well in black and white.

nice shot and good crop. this photo tells a story. BnW gives a better impact, to draw our attention to the the expression of her face. her off center placement is excellent. the blurred back ground stands her out even more. excellent work.

I like the way you made it black and white.It makes the photo stand out more.The girl looking at the bottle makes a good center of interest and
initial impact.To be B&W there is a good color harmony
with good story telling ability and lighting.There is
a good technical excellence
and creativity of presentation
and technique.

Quite an interesting and lovely portrait. The story here is potent. This little girl might be moody or perhaps she is studying something interesting on the beach. She certainly has a pensive look about her.

This is very well composed. There is enormous visual appeal with a good sense of balance. Your exposure is excellent and depth of field works very well, keeping her as the focal point, blurring distractions, but not so much as to destroy the context.

Very nicely done.

I love this photo! The composition is outstanding! The detail is so sharp you can almost read the label on the bottle.Th conversion to B&W is ap effect choice as it gives so much more dramatic effect. The adding of the matt gives a moody flair .
