Hi there from the Critique Club!
I do like the tones in this image and emphasising on the hands was a very good idea, but i think the symmetry should have been a little more dominant. I do like the concept of the usage of the hands and the composition is cropped quite well for the image used but the hands arent exact and i think that's why this image did score lower than hoped. if the hands were flatter showing more of her face on the left i think the symmetry would have been a little stronger ... i did not vote this week - but if i did i would have scored it a 6 for even just capturing the shot and the tonal range :)
Very nice image. Powerful as well with a great message. I like the black and white effect you used on the image. It makes the image more touching. Good job.
