Comment by GrayGhost:
Nice pose, but the overall image seems too low-key, and the cup is brightly distracting. Might have been better to try isolation by DOF, and put your levels and constrast back to where there is some definition of the coat from the bench, etc.

A nice try, but I don't quite get the feeling that the woman is alone in the crowd. The other woman on her right seems to be calling her attention, even. Bumping to 7.

...in more ways than one. Great image to get the viewer thinking. Why is she alone? Why is she obviously much younger than the others in her seating area? What's she looking at? Who's she waiting for? What event is this? Is she related to the photographer? So many questions...

Compositionally this image is right on, and I really like the tonal range of the B/W processing you've done. Well done! Good luck in the challenge.
