Painting silhouette

Painting silhouette - #141/365, originally uploaded by PJMixer.

I had some difficulty choosing my shot for today. This was a typically tricky setting, dark bedroom and bright light from the window. I took lots of shots, including compensating flash with lots of -EV, but I wasn't too pleased with the result. The half way line with light and dark does break the rule of thirds, but with my daughter's silhouette it seems to work. This is actually the second shot (of 23) and I'm now liking the blown out light showing some of her hair details, her side-on silhouette and just enough light to show the bright colours of her painting.
