Pushed to the City Limit

Very nice! I like the concept of viewing the city from the outskirts. I like the way the curvy lines of shrubbery lead the viewer into the skyline. Great effort!

This is a nice shot but I don't really see how it depicts city life.

I like this shot on its own. I love her goofy earmuffs and her un-self-conscious expression. I kind of wish there feet weren't cropped out. Although I'm sure it speaks volumes to the photographer about his/her parents it really doesn't speak to me about motherhood. It's refreshing you didn't try to shoehorn the photo with a leading title.

Very cute and appealing. I like the natural composition quite a bit. This doesn't even look too much like a set-up. I have three kids three years apart and I've been here.

Moments Mothers Treasure

The subjects are a little to close to the background which is why there is that deep shadow behind the boy's head and the mom's ear. Her blinding white scrunchy is a bit distracting to me. The overall composition is good.

Grandma and grandson

You got in nice and close which is good for this type of shot. My issues are with the boy's expression which has an odd fixed appearance which I suspect has to do with front flash lighting. Grandma appears to be squinting.

Sisters?

Great shot. I like that you paid attention to their clothing they wore for this shot. Very simple. I love that they are in their stocking feet.

My Mom

I'm sorry but without the title this says nothing to *me* about motherhood. The theme of the challenge should be recognizable without a title, in my opinion. You know this to be your mother but from the subect's distance from the lens I find it hard to tell if this is a man or a woman let alone a mother. This says more to me about solitude or mankinds' puniness in relationship to his natural enviroment than motherhood. Outside the confines of the challenge I enjoy this photo quite a bit. It shows a good eye for composition and I like that you can't tell the gender of the solitary figure in the distance. This makes it very universal (outside the challenge theme, of course).
