 I think this could be a cover story in a Sunday Magazine of some of the local newspapers here in Iceland. Cultural diversity in our classrooms is a rather new subject in relation to ethnic groups so Icelandic media could focus on that issue with this photo on the front page. The girl is in front of one of the oldest elementary school in Reykjavik.

excellent idea. most of the bottom third of the image should be cropped, though.

more like a photo illustration...nice composition though...she could stand not to have a block through her head and be a little lighter, but it's decent shot.

The railing doesn't bother me, but I don't like the way the roof runs through this child's head.

interesting compo, but colors are washed out ... the grayish is killing the photo and the white cloud is not helping also :-)

nhf.

Hi. It's 4 from me as without the caption I would have failed to get the context.

Little closer on the kid would help I think.
