This hasn't gotten much discussion, but after looking at the image awhile longer, I think the most interesting part of this image is her upper body, facial expression and money in hand. The lower portion of her body might be distracting from that. I have attached a cropped version for your viewing pleasure and comment.  Thanks

Hi Stephanie. Thanks for the compliment and concern. I assume you mean how bright the background is around her upper body. I struggled with how to handle this for probably and hour of experimenting with the ultimate goal to bring out her face as best I could. This is where I landed. Its always a struggle, especially with dark skin, to find the right balance. Sometimes I find myself making a dark skinned individual more light than I want, to get a balance appealing to me. Thanks for keeping me thinking about it though. If you meant something else about depth of field, please let me know.
