Good shot, the Phone or iPad has her attention while she has yours.

i hope you don't mind unsolicited advice, but to me the car in the background is distracting, as is the fact that part of the bench is missing... have you tried this in black and white?

Was this taken last week? Probably keeping tabs on the vote.
Totally off topic, It was awesome to see the voting at 85% of eligible!! Can't get 50% here even if bribed with rides and food! Sad!
Good photo although I liked the girl in the truck better.

Sometimes in street work you don't always get the background you would like, so I've tweaked it down for you...

The missing bit of bench was just my heavy handed cropping, all there for you now.

i'm sorry i can be pedantic about cropping, and i concur that with street photography you cannot always chose you background. here is my attempt at street photography, i would love to hear your comments!

Well no cropping issues here, it's all in.

But my initial thoughts are there's too much "all in", I'm not sure what the subject is, the eye doesn't settle comfortably anywhere.

Also a bit of shadow tweak in PP is required to enhance the details in darker areas.

Last Sunday, voting all done and dusted by then.

In some areas it was over 90%, it was the biggest electoral turn out since 1951, just shows how important people feel about our future.
