1.97 - "Needs Work" 

Description:
The photo was taken at the Saint-André lighthouse on the beautiful Saint-Lawrence river shores in Quebec, Canada. It was shot at the perfect time of the year when the wild rose bushes are in bloom. The photo is reminescent of a childhood dream.

How it was taken:
This photo was a happy accident since the child was running towards her mother (hidden behind the bushes afar) during a family photoshoot. The clothes matching the lighthouse was a coincidence.

Gear used:
Sony a7III
Sony 70-200mm f4 at 200mm f4
Natural light (during golden hour).

Edit:
Edited with Lightroom Classic.
Highlights from the sky removed and shadows bumped up.
