"The Child" (South Florida Holocaust Memorial)

You really captured the horror of the event with this picture. I don't know which is more powerful, the sculpture or the photo. I don't think seeing this in person would have the same effect as your photo. Thank you for sharing.

You are a disgrace to this site. What does it mean to you to invent personalities and recruit your friends to inflate your scores? You are a mediocre photographer and I suspect, deep down, you know that very well.

.... for sharing your opinions with us. After looking at your folder, I can understand your confusion on what good photography should be.

It's very painful to look at this. You captured it very well.

Because of your photo-portofolio on photo.net,

my average for the ratings I made, has gone extremely up!!! Hope my credibility remained constant :) . Excellent work!

You certainly captured the great visual impact that this statue can make!

This is disturbing. Nicely composed.

I have to agree with the other comments. It must have been somewhat disturbing to sit in front of the "child" to take this shot. You sure have captured what the artist was trying to convey

'WOW!'

This is very disturbing image. You have captured the mood perfectly.

Disturbing ... yes, but it gets the point across.

Hello Carlos! I am hardly any expert...but I was wondering whether a different angle would have brought out the pain a little more? Maybe from the angle of the child's hand? Also, the top section of the background statue ends abruptly.. I am trying to understand WHAT the photographer added to an already beautiful sculpture...

Hello Carlos - Thank you for your mail. I appreciate the difficulty you have had in trying to get this shot - given the obstacles around the statues. As you rightly guessed, I havent been here in person - so it may be difficult for me to appreciate the shot. In this light, congratulations on a brave effort. Cheers!
