High contrast lends a vivid mood and atmostphere to this image and the girl's personality or mood.

I like the contrast in her pants and sneakers, but for me, the area around her face lessens the overall contrast by having similar grayscale values.

I like the composition, but I find myself looking at her pants rather than her face.

I like the grainy urban feel to it. Her relaxed hands and somber expression ad to the shot. Nicely done.
