It's a nice candid shot. In candids, we can't choose much of the enviroment, only the moment. You chose a good moment, and made an excellent choice of aperature and shutter speed to do as best you could with the background.
The difficulty of the shot, for me, is the combination of saturated jacket and the high contrasr of the background, pull my attention away from the subject's nice expression, which should be the focal point of the composition.
Suggestions? Desaturate the coat (have you tried B&W?), and lower the contrast of, or crop out, the upper portion of the image. I believe these suggestions would center the viewer's attention on the subject, and improve the effect of the image. |
