I rather like this one I like the solitary human and animals, it gives a definate feel that something has happened. I like the pose of the girl who seems to be celebrating that life is still existing

The only thing i would say is that some of the buildings look a little washed out in the background and maybe play a little with your lighting on the buildings ..... but other than that its good work author.

Regarding Keilly22's observation, if you duplicate the background layers that are washed out it should give them more presence & stronger color.

mayby you could use some blend modes or filters or just anything to let it look more like one image and not different images cut and pasted !

I wish you very much luck on the path of creating
