The Bike is not in perfect focusing, but I think that the most important is that the silhouette is not well defined agains the background. I agree that the little girl on the left make some distraction, I will try to burn she in the darkroom and see how it look. I don?t want clone she, in my opinion, serious traditional photography work don?t like any manipulation, I have to see what can I do. I want enlarge Fading Skater but not at a large size, I think it will work well at a relative small size. I agree about the look, it is the best one of the four and I will work on this one in the darkroom. Best!
