took this pic of my cousin dec 26th. she was curious about high iso and noise with my rebel XSi, so i took a pic of her to show her. guess the best emotion would be concentration.

emotion : innocently lost

I misread your emotion as "innocence lost" and it give the photo a completely different feel. Not a good one at that, but innocently lost, yeah better emotion.
