This is pure joy to look at, and I love the composition very much.
A work of art in photogrphy IMO. The colortone helps to highlight the subjects, and also to soften the image. Again, I like it, and so pleased to comment on it.

Great shot, Han. Was not too sure about the blue tone but it grew on me the more I studied the picture as did the desaturation.

My only comment would be that I would have liked to see the grandmother leaning more to her left, closer to the child, pulling the generations closer together with the kind of subliminal message that the "young come together through the old". I also think the line connecting the top of the heads would be interesting in itself with that kind of effect.

But then, what do I know? :-)

Oh I love the generational thing and the way you saturated it.

I added a blue photofilter, so the blue tones are right ;)

thanks for the comment robs, I'll check tomorrow what I can do to save the compo.

I feel like I want the kid closer to the adults. Also not sure if the child would fit in better in bare feet also, although the wellies are not too bad (I assume you pointed them in towards the adults). Little cool (blue) on this monitor.

ok, thanks for the tips guys!!

I'm gonna re-edit it tomorrow, (blugh!) to see how it looks like with a different crop.

It feels a little cramped on the right side, perhaps a larger crop to give more room on the right. This would have the secondary effect of (maybe) alleviating Ken's concern about contagious child syndrome (ie - it would feel the lil gal is closer to the mom and granny).

Overall I like the composition and the PP, nicely done Han :)

I like the desat / treatment and the overall feel, but the composition seems disjointed. The women are too far from the child, IMO. Does the child have a contagious virus? Cuz then I would excuse it. ;-)

very nice! I love the physical closeness of the "grandmother" and "mother". They are sitting in such an intimate way that only a mother and daughter would. and there interest in the "grandchild" is very heartwarming as well. great work. the tones look too blueish for me but I'm not sure if you wanted it that way. Lovely shot no matter what!
