Amazing capture of a moment between a mother and her child. The black sets off the light great! Look forward to more of your work!

This is a beautiful photo, the contrast is execellent and the pose is so good. I am greatly impressed with this picture, it is so beautiful. The crop points seem to add to the picture showing the real meaning of the picture. Great job :)

The composition is not quite right in this one as the picture is not quitew balanced the lighting and contrasts are good but the position of the baby is not quite right.

    I so appreciate your comments. Please elaborate though because I need the advice. Head up - Head down?

    try squatting down more in line with the subject so the angles are a little more pleasing.

I like this picture. Besides the fact that it hold true emotion within it, the fact that it's in black and white really emphasizes what you're trying to get across. Congrats.

Comment from Papa


Candid Creations, this is an excellent, very dramatic and most appealing photograph. That the mother is all in black adds a unique and striking element. And, the manner in which the mother is holding the little guys bum is terrific. Your exposure seems perfect and the composition quite delightful, although it might even be a better image than it is had you been able to include all of the baby's legs and the mother's head. It also seems to me to be slightly out of focus. Nevertheless, this is an excellent photograph.
Peace, Papa
