and this is my individual shot:
Using a shallow depth of focus, the subject is highlighted but the background is still clear enough for the viewer to see that it is a city setting. I am actually standing next to a street vendor (which can almost epitomize what it means to be downtown.) I have always loved big cities, yet I grew up in a suburb. The only thing I wanted in a university was to be close to some city bigger than the one I grew up around and I feel as if this photo captures my satisfaction for being in DC. It isn't an outright "jumping for joy" sort of expression - it is more thoughtful and content.
