 Caught this last week and have only just had enough time to process it... I felt that the contrast between the two women was worth capturing. The young woman seemed to be having such a hard time, whereas the older woman was clearly doing a much harder job... hmm... food for thought.

Processing was the usual... watch my video if you wish to see the basic steps.

Usual camera settings for me as well. Continuous shooting, continuous focus, fired 3 frames tracking the younger woman and chose this one as it was the one I felt showed the scene as I saw it.

I like how your pictures allow us to see and feel the same things you did, and your processing, as usual, is really good ;)

They all seem to be experiencing something terribly unpleasant..no one is looking at one another.. I like the space you left them to walk into.. hope for their future maybe.

I like the tension in this scene. The processing suggests a warm, cherished moment, but the mood suggests otherwise.

Good work. You have three perspectives here -- the woman with the baby is concentrating on just going forward, the two young people are looking far ahead, and the baby is looking at something off to the side (and isn't awfully happy about what he sees). Maybe it's a metaphor for our times.

Nice processing, too. (As always.)
