Great photo! I think the composition really works. Interesting mood created from the understated subject, makes for a very original photograph.

I love this image... but...

It doesn't say "Upside Down" to me.

I'm sorry.

Nice capture of the moment. I like the portait crop of just the girl.

due to the slow internet speed the picture loaded slowly from top to bottom and after I saw the girl jumping (bottom half was still loading) I was hoping the flight of stairs to end soon enough.. and gladly it did :)
Nice composition

Hello from the Critique Club.

This is a strong photo that has immediate impact on the viewer and it meets the challenge entirely and unambiguously.

On a technical level it is very well done, with a depth of field that suits the composition, and with good lighting. I am glad you included your setup notes - your work has paid off. The vignette adds hugely to the overall 'feel' of the image, lending it a dark and brooding atmosphere entirely in keeping with your subject. There is nothing that I would change in this photo - every element contributes to the whole.

Little more that I can say, other than 'Good Work'!
