This is a novel for me.

Wow, what an image. I am immediately drawn into to it like a bee is toward honey.

Excellent. and very emotive portraitssss!

I think it's an amazing picture! The woman looking at the camara seems to be asking "What am I gonna do? I don't have any money or hope... what am I gonna give to my little sisters?"

Love the colors!

Enhorabuena!

This is just awesome!!!!

impressive...

Absolute perfection

Very impressive image.Like a film.

Intresting idea. 7/7

I don't see suffering in this image and I must agree that if mom too was distracted like her children I could have more appreciated the poetic effect.

amazing tones. Please check out my folder.

...imagen con un color extraordinario, llena de simbolismo. Saludos

great use of toning to capture the misery? of the moment

I must preface this comment with the fact that I really like this photograph. The toning is exactly like a hand-colored B&W photograph in the days before color film. In that respect it is superb. I also enjoy the perspective and composition immensley.

But I have to agree with the comments about lack of suffering. Indeed, there is a lack of emotion in general here. The adult's view into the camera is more one of apathy, certainly not one of hostility. The group is reasonably well dressed, their clothes are not tattered. The children appear to be well washed, neat, and not hungry. So where is the suffering? They could just as well be out for a Sunday stroll. Regards.

Fantastic mood! My compliments.

Fantastic!

It's a poem. Photo of the week. congratulations

My god, what color; it looks hand-painted! You have also controlled the light perfectly.

Interesting that comments are bemoaning lack of suffering and emotion, not sure what your intent was/is, but I think much could be thought about the situation portrayed.

 

The feeling I get from all of them is rather quiet, very inward, just that is emotional as to the 'why'.

Very, very interesting!

Fotografí¡ con una ambientaci�n y una luz preciosas, una composici�n equilibrada, es una fotografí¡ que relaja.

Suffering hmmmm. The mom (probable single mom) doesn't have a (happy face or joyous look) nor would I say apathy, more hardship than anything. For us men who don't care for children daily by ourselves, we may not see the suffering. I don't feel dirty faces and starvation with tattered closes are necessary.

I feel the struggle in this picture.

This could easily be a novel cover.

Unique!

SOmething extra, above a picture.

An amazing, strong, thought provoking image Mark! Just look at all the varied responses as to what the viewers are feeling. That's better than a bushel of 7's lol! This image works on some many levels, the muted colours, a bit of a vintage feel, an amazing dynamic composition. Throw in some conjecture as to a story and you have a very powerful image.
