Emotion-packed presentation. Love the eyes especially and her skin. I personally would have liked to see a bit more of the face, but just my opinion

Comment from LarryB
You know the sad stories here is downright disheartning.

The focus is excellent, and so much is on her face. 5 is still a baby and she carries a big adult load.

Thanks, It is a very sad story.

Yes it is a very sad story. We try to help but there are so many of them.
Thank you for your kind review and for understanding my photo.

Comment from emeraldheart
Great initial impact.Very impressive to capture her to get the message.A sad one at that.Great focus and lighting capture with good clarity.Close up at this angle adds interest and is highlighted well with good blur to background.Good job and good luck.Thank you.
