The carousel, located in downtown Seattle, was moving and I did not have a tripod. I love the expression on the baby and the love and concern shown by the Mum and Grandmother.
I cropped, used Shadows, color, Hue/Sat and cropped to enhance the eye line from Grandmother.

Not very sharp and lacks contrast

IMO, I think the camera focused more on the background instead of the foreground because the horse is OOF.

The colors are very vivid! The idea is good, the carousel is nice and colorful, and makes a great backdrop. I think it would have been nice to get a little better focus on the subject and maybe change the crop or shot to get the subject (the child) into the 2/3's area. That is just my opinion.

Cute picture. There's something about the composition though...blank space right in the middle...my eye is drawn to that empty space and not to the baby. Maybe a different crop or angle? I like all the colors.
