Superb background. The girls is also fine, looking a bit stiff but wearing well matching colors.

Hi Caleb

The picture in thumbnail is already eye-catching. But I did not realised immediately that you had partially desaturated it... Actually I wonder what it would be if you could keep only the ground and the door desaturated and bring back the colors on her body? Her anxious look, allied to her loneliness in the frame creates a strong impact. Despite the shining color of her dress, there is so much vulnerability in her attitude! That's heartbreaking!
Excellent capture, Caleb!
Regards
Marine

Another stunning post from you.

I really like how her dress stands out in the whole shot but she doesn't look very comfortable being shot. And Foe me, this kills the b'uty of this otherwise great shot. Did she know you were aiming at her...?

So well framed, Caleb!
I just love the expression of the girl. She doesn't seem very happy, I'm not sure if it was because of your camera but it's great. I like the old door and wall in background and her colourful clothes - they make such a perfect contrast!

Those old doors sure make nice backgrounds. The colors of the little girls just 'explode' out at the viewer in this one. Spectacular.

I like the way she seems to not even notice you...
