An artist in the making

Months down the line gradually refining my post-processing

techniques...any improvement over the original? Suggestions, helpful

comments...please...

an interesting story within a neatly composed frame, the perspective works well and the DOF is effective. I also like the emotions the kid is filled with while playing. I do not like the color manipulation as its effects distract me from the main subject and make the photo a bit too overprocessed. think the simple conversion to b&w would give the best results here. Very good and beautiful shot anyway, thank you for sharing.

Excellent shot with good subject and composition.  I like the focus of your subject on what she is doing ... makes the viewer want to know as well!  Thanks for sharing!

Well done.
