Original just smaller with no editing:
I don't think it was over processed.
I desaturate a little, used a high pass filter in overlay and cloned out the couple and motorcycle. The vignetting was imho adding something to the scene making it like a deserted place in a city suburb.

Well-placed subject for RoT, along with fascinating background art. It's pretty busy, but the placement and lighting creates decent subject isolation. The left and bottom vignetting is too much for my taste... Still an effective response to the challenge.
So strong and studied that this could be a stage set. The woman, who appears to be absorbed in the moment, is planted on a thirds line. The three glamorous women nicely situate the woman with her cart in humble contrast. This wonderful image is well-framed by the less exalted workaday continuations on the left and right. Let the opera commence!
