But I really like the portrait of Jenna as well. For a portrait of a child, it seems to give her age beyond her years. A nice moment of thought (or daydreaming perhaps) captured in a quiet and deliberate way. It is a portrait, for whatever reason, that makes you feel the atmoshpere around that scene. Very nice.

You have some nice work there - I especially like some of the kids. But I must say that the one photo that stands out for me above all the rest is your portrait of John. It is special.
