"Here I am" is a nice addition into the Window Framed challenge.

This was a very interesting location with a great little face to grab our attention. The image feels natural, unfortunately the graffiti is there but that is something we cannot avoid sometimes.

The image does feel dark. I understand that more then likely you were working with natural light, which is impossible to control. The lighting takes away from the little girl. I think it was an interesting pavilion to take a shot at. I just wish there was a better placement of the girl because this is a really cute idea.

the lighting is a little flat, which is hard cause it is natural light (or looks to be), some contrast whould help the image over all and add some dynamics- (light and shadow)

Not well lit, the girl isn't enough of the shot to be dominating, and the graffiti doesnt' help. I would've chosen a different location myself.

Great expression. Good job on the exposure. I would have put more of her in the shot.

Composition feels unbalanced... I don't like that there's a pole coming out of her head.

I like it. It's fun! I might have cloned out the graffiti.

I can see where you were aiming for the symmetry of the pavillion but having the subject so low in the photo creates an imbalance to me. Still, I rather like the idea!

The picture is overall too dark. The only brightness is a blown or overcast sky, which doesn't add a whole lot either. Her expression is nice, but I also feel she is being lost in the picture.

too bad you're not allowed to clone out the graffitti in the background. otherwise it's a fun photo.
