artofheadshots 0 Posted March 16, 2003 Thanks to some photographers that I have admiration for their work like Jim Vanson, I re-released this photograph with a slightly warmer tone, different framing and different cropping. I hope you like it and please make comments. I have read every comment given to me and will check your workspace if you invest your time to give me some constructive remarks. Cheers, Ringo Link to comment
bens 0 Posted March 16, 2003 its a terrific shot. The nature of the subject, coloring of the mouth and nipple, the roundness in the head, mouth, breast, shoulder, the warm skin colors make this stand out. i can see why you might have re-framed it, as the composition seems hard to get right. you've done a good job here, but i'd be interested in seeing a version with more breast, kind of coupling child and woman. but that's a quibble, and shows how the picture draws you in and makes you curious. One thing though: if you've punched up the red, i would tone it down a hair. Link to comment

nem 0 Posted March 17, 2003 The expression on the baby is wonderful. This image reminds me of the innocence we all have in our youth, something that we tend to forget and ignore as we grow older. Thanks for sharing this will all of us! Link to comment
gemccaw 1 Posted March 18, 2003 This is a fine document of the mother/baby bond, skillfully and tastefully executed. One thing which strikes me about the composition is the way all the "circles" play off each other. Link to comment
rubens_abboud 0 Posted March 19, 2003 I like the tone, colour, lighting, composition and expression. I find the red spots on the breast and arms somewhat distracting and would clone/blur them out in PS, if you don't object to that sort of thing. I'd nevertheless be mighty proud of hanging this image if it was my son! Well done! Link to comment
