Very nice background. I wish the child were better lit to see her expressions.

Beautiful work!!

Thanks for your comments. Regarding the light my idea was to have the sunlit fountain as bright background and the girl in the shade almost as a silhouette, so that only the arms, in particular fingers, would indicate her pleasure in moving through the spray

I love the light!

very dynamic! top-class!

Dieter.  I think this is a very successful photograph.  As you mentioned, the hands are very expressive and I think you took the right approach to highlighting them.  I also like the movement in the photograph and it captures the joy in that moment.  Nicely done.  Dana...
