>>206986 My attention is indeed drawn to the couple in the middle, but not only because they are in the middle.A lot of lines in the picture leads to the couple as well. This cannot be fixed with cropping. It already is quite an extreme crop from the original, which I think might look better. I'd reconsider cropping it so panoramic. There's a nice balance in the picture due to the dark shadows on the right, and the light and bright side on the left in the picture. The clouds are a little too light, there could've been some more contrast. I would suggest to underexpose a little. This would bring out the left side more, and create a more dramatic side on the right. The biker blurred by motion is okay, but is not quite nice, but not quite frozen either. It would've been better to take a slower shutterspeed, giving more blur to the biker. 4/10
>>206988 It's nice to see you have thought about the picture (hopefully while taking it). However, it doesn't show. There is indeed a contrast, but the subject of this picture is the little girl, while the subject should've been the contrast between both of them. This is mostly due to the fact we can only see the lower part of the body of the lady in black. It would've worked better if you had both in frame, while trying to not have the little girl on the bottom of your frame. The car in the background is distracting. A shallower Depth of Field would've worked. Her expression is bland. Next time, wait longer till you get a more interesting expression, or find a way to get her attention, so she looks at you. That would've contrasted better with the lady still looking to the left and what looks like, in a hurry.
