God...I think I've been back to look at this photo like 8 times in the last hour. It looks as though everyone in the photo is an actor....it's so amazing. It looks like there are so many stories to be told from this photo. I love it.

Freaking amazing... This will be on the front page for sure. I'm going to take a wild guess and say this is Coley? Either way...I love this picture. 10

Ohhhh....infrared. I like it. I love the blue cast that you put on the whole thing... This is different than most of the IR work that I've seen. What camera were you using for this photo?

Greetings from the Critique Club!

What and amazing and imaginative photo. The image shows the epitome of caring and love...you have captured the feelings well in this one.

First off, what I don't like about the picture; Really...the only thing I can see that I would like different is the tight crop on the right side. It feels a little cramped around the baby. Other than that...my only other complaint is that the lighting is just a tad harsh on the mother and the back of the baby, but that is only a minor element in my opinion and doesn't pose any real problems to the quality of the image. Also...the mother's pinky finger on her right hand looks a little wierd...but once again, that is just being nit-picky.

Now...what I like about the image; For me...my favorite part is the color. I really really like how the red is repeated throughout the photo. From the fabric, to the mothers cheeks, to the baby's face...it's all there. The focus is great, and it has just the right amount of "softness" to it to give it that romantic and sensible feel. The composition is wonderful. The lighting is very well done. There's so much to like here and the score you recieved, as well as all the comments, reflect that.

Overall...a very personal and raw capture of what being a mother is like. Keep up the good work..and Good Luck!

Greetings from the Critique Club!

So I click on an image to critique and look what comes up! What a fantastic image...very imaginative and creative, and so very....Coley-like. When I saw this image I, like many others, thought you used a trampoline to get this shot, but you have proved me wrong on this one.

First off let me start with the things I don't like about the image; My biggest complaint are the trees and what looks like the top of a building near the bottom of the picture. In my opinion they are a little distracing from the subject of the image, however, it may have been unavoidable in your case. Other than that...there is not a whole lot wrong with your photo. As mentioned in an earlier comment...the crop is a little wierd. If it were possible to get all of the moms body in the photo I believe this would of been on the home page. But...once again, this may have been impossible with the setup you were using. Those are my only real complaints, although the lighting may ba just a tad harsh...it's nothing to get upset about.

Now what I like about the photo; The image itself is very imaginative and creative. It shows off you signature style. The focus is spot on. The colors are great...I really like the way all three of them are wearing the same darker shades. It helps show unity between the two girls and their mom. I could go on and on about how great your execution of the idea was...but I would be repeating everything that the commenters before me have said.

Overall...great, great image. I look forward to seeing what oyu can come up with in the future. Have fun and Good luck!
