b&w makes it look even worse. (The pollution, not the picture!)

I like the b/w conversion and how you've caught the feel of the area but including the buildings on the right shakes the balance and they seem too overexposed.. Maybe if you'd walked just a little to the right and gotten the sharp corner of the building.. that would have made the composition more simple and perhaps stronger. Another problem here is the black plastic bags seem completely camouflaged.. maybe moving in closer to get more detail would have helped..

One of my top picks in the challenge. I am not sure if I could explain why but the image grabs me. GL!

The lighting on the subject is a bit dark, perhaps as a result of trying to black out the interior. Perhaps using depth of field to blur the interior background could have worked nicer.

Comment by sempermarine:
This was one of my favorite pictures during this challenge. It really shows the emotion that grandparents have for their grandchildren and how grandchildren typically react to it. The use of light in this photo was great. I liked the way the light was focused on the child, yet allowed for the expression of others to be viewed. I assume this was a spontaneous shot and will be cherished forever. Great Job!

Comment by posthumous:
ah, the love and approval we all want so desperately, and the child too young to quite appreciate it. This photo is as evocative as an entire movie. A brilliant capture. Somehow you got light to trace emotion exactly.

I think you needed to "persuade" the cat to move slightly to the left ... ;-)

I like the composition, I think more could have been done in post to make that background really pop and the blacks be more black
