Excellent shot. Very well composed, and an interesting subject. Only criticism I'd make is that I'd like to see it with slightly more contrast and slightly more saturation. That said, it's great as it is. Saludos.

My kind of Rally! I really like how you got the hair blowing in the wind. Very modelish.

"You cannot help the world by focusing on the negative things. As you resist something you are only adding more power and energy to it. So if you're anti-war, be pro-peace instead. If you're anti-hunger, be pro-people having more than enough to eat. Anything we focus on we do create. So if we're really angry, for instance, at the war that's going on, or strife, or suffering, we're adding our energy to it. We're pushing ourselves and that creates resistance."
"What you risist persists." - Carl Jung
Other than my personal objects to "anti" anything...this is truly a great shot!

Great portrait - I love her tye-dyed shirt. There's something very effective about the youth protesting against war that you've captured well here.

Nice shot - I like the way the sign is cropped to show just the bottom message which in this case tells the whole story.
I agree with Renee to an extent - it is an tricky line to walk. To be against something but not to feed it or give it energy. Saying you are anti-XXXX gives brings attention to that thing. Although the other view is that just ignoring something does not make it go away.

Fabulously successful photojournalism! The comments above show how you have captured an issue and through this image have people talking. Great stuff.
