Default Kid in the park...which one fits better!

Hello folks... I captured this shot while kids were playing in a park....wanted to run this by you to see if anything is off. How do you like the composition?, color rendering? Any comments on how else you would like it....

EDIT: Do you think the sepia color fits the picture at all? Share your comments please. Or do you prefer the B&W version. Sorry for 2 posts here, just trying to figure which one fits better. Appreciate your response.

B&W


SEPIA


EXIF:
Nikon D300
50mm lens @ f2.5
1/2000 (very bright day)
no flash
ISO 100

Cheers,
NikD

I prefer the black and white. were there other kids playing in the park? having them "blurred" in the background would be cool.

I maybe would have tried to take it at such an angle that the distraction in the background was not showing and maybe have the little girl turn her head a little to the side. However I understand that little girls do exactly what little girls want to do. No different to big girls in that regard

Oh, and I prefer the sepia tone in this shot.

I like sepia tone better. I also probably would have the hoop be completely in the picture.
Also, the background seems a little of level. Great shot, though!

is your lens back focusing? the grass in front of her looks to be in focus while she is somewhat soft
