 During the Remembrance Parade 2018 in central London, this young girl was one of the few in the crowed with a bright red coat making her stand out. She was in a long queue and i believe she was getting bored waiting. Capturing this innocent expression is the best shot of my 2018. Hope you like it too.

I like you composition but would prefer pure b&w. Her pale skin and blonde hair pops agains the dark background.

She looks like she's in jail. Not sure what I think about the selective desat ... especially her lips. She looks a bit young for lipstick and the color doesn't match the intensity of the rest of the red in the scene. And my eye gets drawn to the other patches of red, and I'm not sure what that adds to her story.

Sorry -- the partial desat isn't working for me. It may have worked better if you didn't make the reds so incredibly red -- a little more subtly, and the lips put it over into creepy... sorry
