Near perfect. What I like about photographs like this is that no element in the scene will show you in what year it was shot. Sure there will be some miniscule hints, but for all I know it could have been taken in the 1960's instead of 2005.
The shadow exposure on the person contrast wonderfully vs the brighter surroundings, the fence is a strong line.

Love the bike, the clothes and the satchel; the colour and faded background, all together a great nostalgic mood. Top class stock.

i really like this candid for this challenge. good call on colorizing and i like the soft look. its soft enough but doesn't distort the edges of the people. good job.

The man in the photograph only seems to steal attention from the girl's strong portrayal of boredom

This I like. I can relate to this photo. Waiting for your folks to get done doing "parent" stuff can be excruciatingly boring. Well composed, body language on the daughter is priceless and the father not noticing his fathers boredom really completes this picture. Well done.

Great shot on the embankment. The old sit up and begs are the best. Not for me a BMX, Chopper or Racer.

The B/W brings out atmosphere here. My only concern is that as a stock image it may be a little stylistic...
