I like your pp on this shot..the cigarette butts on the ground, the expression on the woman's face, the way people give her a wide berth, all contribute to the story I make up in my mind as to what is going on. Nice job
Dont really care for the fisheye. It looks like you had a good subject but you didnt really get in there like you could have. I think you could have caught some really amazing photos of the lady if you had taken the time to really compose your shots. Either way though, I think the fisheye was a poor choice.
You would still make this photo decent with some levels/curves/contrast adjustments.
Great combination of subject matter, framing, and post processing. The fact that everyone is avoiding eye contact with her makes for a better story. Good shot!
This should be the blue ribbon in my opinion. Tells a great story, love the distortion used to emphasize the woman. The title adds to the image, overall a very emotional and telling photograph. 10
This lens is effective here, it gives movement to the scene. Like a moment on the carousel of life. Nice subtle tones, and lots of interesting things to look at.
