I like the colors in this, but the shot itself looks almost like a candid taken between posed shots, if that makes sense. It *is* a candid, but it doesn't really "tell" anything about her or her surroundings.

Feels a little staged...but a good capture.

nice and sharp but looks too much like a portrait than a candid.

Not 100% sure whether this is what I would call a 'true' candid shot, but like the pop that the image has got due to the bokeh
