This picture really speaks and it speaks loud. As soon as I saw the thumbnail amongst all the others, it drew my attention. The depth of field used combined with her face, which looks kinda sad, helps convey a sense of isolation. Going on a limb here, I think you also slightly desaturated the back which emphasize that isolation even more. The framing is perfect and captured just at the perfect moment. The fact that people are so far from her while she is playing coveys also the indifference of people. This picture, at least to me, has a lot of soul and screams, with a silent voice: I EXIST!

2 small little details that I've noticed that could improve this picture. 1 can be modified at will but the other one would require you to retake that shot, which is probably impossible. The first one: Behind her, there is a bike handle. I would either clone stamp it out or crop it out of there. The last detail, the arc is not completely shown and missing the top. But that cannot be corrected. I wish to point out that those 2 elements are, in my opinion, minor details that certainly doesn't change the fact that this is a GREAT picture.

Most definitely a <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/p/p…" width="15" height="16" alt=":+fav:" title="+fav"/>. Very well done and that's why I gave it such a good review. I hope these few words will encourage you to continue and make these great captures and also inspire us.

Kindest regards and my respect,
