Good composition and nice tones. A little more contrast may be ?... no it's perfect.

Yeah, the contrast is fine. Any more and you'd lose the details in the shadows. Excellent shot. Looking forward to seeing more.

Just wanted to add that I actually prefer the original, uncropped version. It adds some interesting context to things and makes for a more engaging photo, imo.

I like the original too, I'm not sure which one I prefer, but the one you posted made the first impact. It's a great shot.

I love this photo. I do think, though, that if you could achieve more contrast without losing detail, that it would enhance the photo.

I like the shot, but it also makes me sad a little bit. Can't tell you why exactly though. Maybe because this old lady just looks so fragile and lonely in her house, I don't know... Anyways, it's a good find, congrats...
