nice capture of the mood of that little and cute girl. but it seems that your focus is more on the net than on the face of the girl.
bets wishes,

Savas,
Very interesting photo, the girl, the green, the maze, but most of all the off-focus of the girl, it adds to the mystery of the photo.
regards,

A beautiful title for a very moving photo.
Is innocence finally condemned to stay behind bars?

hi savas, really like your picture. Only comment is choice of your title, i understand where you are coming from, but personally I find that since the focus lies on the fence rather tan on the leaves or the kid, it might not be the most fitting title. but then again not sure what would be, just really like the shot, thanks for sharing.

In this shot you say your focus was deliberately on the fence ... did you get another shot with focus on the girl? I think it would be a good workshop to see a comparison.
I personally would find it very difficult to get focus on the girl in this case, auto-focus features on most cameras would make it challenging.
Composition, colours and subject are all excellent.
