I feel the quasi old look of the picture does not fit in at all with the plastic playground material. You might have tried a washed 70s kind of toning, but not sepia
the photo comes across very flat, with little contrast and no central point of interest. the trees in the background and the equipment are all tangled up together visually.
Image is very central across the middle of the picture. leads the eye across the picture but not into it. Not sure about the "old photo" effect with this. he subject is too new for making it look like toys from the past
Nice old fashioned look fits the title well. Not a particularly exciting viewpoint though, a ground position pointing up from the base of the climbing frame, wide angle, would have eliminated the trees just leaving you with strong contrasting structure against the sky
I like the dreamy almost rose-tinted look you've given this in post-processing. I'd prorbably have framed/cropped this more loosely so you can see more of the playground
This is good... well photographed, but my eye goes everywhere in it searching for the subject. There doesn't appear to be a clear one... and the slide takes my eye out the side instead of drawing me in.
What's here is well done, though it doesn't say 'childhood' to me... Perhaps 'empty', or 'lonely'.
