I am not sure how “ghetto” in the title is to connect with the picture subject. Interesting POV.

I'd like to see a little more contrast in the mid tones. I like your diagonal composition and the subject.

Your title made me laugh, but your picture is a little depressing. Not that that's a bad thing though, I like your different angle that you choose to shoot from and the black & white adds to the mood.

The orientation of this photograph is disorienting. Also, the eye is drawn more towards the architecture rather than the swing.

Great composition. I'd would have like to have seen a little more contrast while maintaining the ghetto-ee b&w.

Quite dull tones, B&W always benefit from slightly clipped shadows and highlights to increase contrast and impact. A visit to the curves or levels shop during popst processing would have brought this to life

The angle is quite distracting.

Clever title. Like the angle too.

The tilt is entirelly unnecessary in my opinion.

This has very little contrast as a B&W photo

I'm not sure I understand the title... It doesn't seem to go with the picture!

An empty swing, how creative! The angle makes me feel like I'm going to fall over, I have to turn my head. The black and whites looks nice and the contrast is wonderful! The fact that the swing is blurry bothers me somewhat but over all, nice picture.

Not quite sure what it is about this shot that could improve it. Perhaps, it's the angle and the blur to the swing motion????

Why the tilt?
