Comment by talmy:
Good picture, but frame ruins it since it becomes part of the pump.

I think the border ruins the impact of the turquoise pump for me. I'd like it with a simple black one, or maybe none at all.

Comment by Germaine:
Good contrast and interesting subject matter, but the green border really kills it for me.

That looks like a mother's stare if I've ever seen one. Nicely done.

Comment by ubique:
A very strong mother image (and a very strong mother, as it happens). Her maternal protective instinct is being communicated unequivocally. The photograph is very nice, from a lighting, composition and processing point of view (except for the ropes; it's advanced editing, so I think they could have been profitably removed in processing - surely they're not a "major element"?) Anyway, even with the ropes, it's one of the best in this challenge.
