In Méjico, atole (sweetened corn drink) is as common as coffee in thre EUA.

    This is a nice shot, I like the light and color. However, I wish there was more negative space behind and above her.

    Glad you liked ther María.

    You don't want to see what was behind and above her, Cristóbal, it's busy and distracting which is why it's not there.

    It might benefit from a square crop and the angle might fall into place better

    Too much floor

    Thanks for the comments and critique.

    I tried a crop and the balance changes too much cropping the foreground; her figure becomes overpowering.

    I left the paving stones in for leading lines which are lost with a square crop.
