2 - "Needs Work" 

This pic was taken in my train commute. Everyone but this woman was staring at their phone/laptop, she was looking outside, facing the sunset, lost in her thoughts.

I took the pic with a Canon R6 and a RF70-200mm F4 L IS USM, which I'm pretty much always carrying around with me. I used a low aperture (f4.5) to focus on her face and isolate her from the surrounding, to reflect her state of mind (or so I guess!)

Very little editing in Lightroom, just slightly desaturated everyting but her face.

Judging from the ratings, I doubt many appreciate the idea of this street photography. But it was really well timed to me.
