Interesting shot, very nice self portrait. Definitely makes me ask what's she doing, the odd yet natural placement of her lower hand is a bit unsettling, however the mind sort of fills in what's missing. Did you crop to remove the bike from the reflection? I think the full image works better.
I agree with John, the second is a preferable composition.
I don't find the scooter too distracting, although it might be worth toning down the red and orange plastic a tad.
The brightness of the canvas on the right hand side does attract my eyes rather too much, but cropping may spoil the composition and toning it down wouldn't look right either, because it's obviously outside and should be brightly lit.
Taking another look, I think a small crop to RHS does improve it.
HTH, Dave
Nice shot, 2 for me.
I find the original better Tejal
The wider scene for me.
The crop seems too tight. I know you can't see any more of her head in the wider version but at least you are aware of the reason.
Maybe slightly tone down the highlights on the blue area at the top and the cloth on the right.
Otherwise, this looks OK for me.
Tejal,
I've been meaning to comment on your wonderful images with the 18-55mm, comment has nothing to do with the quality of the lens but on your close proximity to your subjects and the fact that all of your images seem to captured with only one lens. I wish I could see you in action as it would help me in my street photography excursions, as your son is sometimes with you on your adventures perhaps you should give him a video camera to capture you doing your thing? A point and shoot with video capability would suffice.
Thanks John for your comment. They were opening the stall. She was removing the front plastic cover. That bike, i tried to avoid but i failed. Field didnt support me. My crop was not because of that actually. I thought of not to show that I incorporated me in the frame through the mirror.... something like that ....
he he he...
Thank you so much for your kind words. You made my day.
There is no technique i use to shoot on street . I am planning to buy 10-18 mm lens (but dont know when i will be able to buy ). I hope with this i will be able to go more close. I prefer to take a corner (so that i dont disturb people there) and keep myself comfortable and wait for the desired moment. This is the only technique i use on street.
And I wish that I could get an opportunity to do photography sometimes with you.
Here are some pics where i was caught in action

Tejal,
Very nice shots of you with the birds. And very good examples of you in action, exactly what I was looking for, you do seem to look for the best angles as shown by how you composed your peacock silhouette. I don't think I could get down that low; just laziness on my part.
I checked out your Facebook page. You do some very nice work that we haven't seen on CIC. My favorite is the "It's all in the hands" winner.
