F10? You might have liked it more if you had worked to blow out the background. That lens will go to f2.8, right? Back up a bit, put it down to f4.0 and zoom in. If you couldn't back up due to a crowd or something, at least drop the aperture for a chance to blur the background. That may have helped you be happier with it. She's definitely an interesting character! Surprised it's this sharp at 1/30 second.
