I really think this is a great photo. First, the way Alana is holding Pa shows love and trust and safety. And Pa's protective grasp makes it clear these two are close. The look in both of their eyes almost ask us to turn away from this personal, stolen moment. The colors are great, even the tree poking through in the upper right, which I didn't like at first, helps give us a hint that a rescue is taking place. And the noise (I'll call it grainyness) provides a softness that adds to the photo, IMO. Finally, having such a striking model puts this one over the top. Pa looks good too, but I don't like the hat much. You really got me on this one.
