Direction I am headed for senior

this is of course before the processes i am going to add but i just thought that i would see how you guys felt about the subject matter. I am going for that more antiquated snapshotty feel.

why you have the houses in the background in focus?
Would it be more effective to put a selective focus on Steph? 2.8 or 4 vs 22 or 16?

Also seeing the two sets of foot steps in the snow makes me question two things, does jesus walk beside her or did she just get in a fight with a lover? If it was the fight why not more movement in the foot steps..?

Wish I could see the back end of the car.

Friedlander meets Winogrand?

i agree with Ian, the end of the car is creating a bad sort of tension. but the extreme depth of field i believe works well with what you are trying to convey. I love the houses in the background. everything in the frame is working, and has a time period feel. i think this is an effective reproduction of what could be in a photo album.

I agree with Ian, but I'm also wondering if that will be such an issue after you've done some deterioration to the image. I like the style you are going for so far!

I question her position. Are there many snapshots where someone is just sitting in the snow like this? It looks like it was posed by a photographer rather than a moment captured by someone with a camera.
