Mother and son.

Thanks for your time.

Rashid said it. Touching photo. Yhe mothers innocence...and her poverty....earthy.

Poverty and what appears to be a serious medical condition..

wow....wonderful image. Where is this?

This one has been shot in Madagascar. The woman is an artisan, working with aluminium cans in a "paleolithic" foundry factory. Because of that she has this dirty face

Marina, what a great composition! The way you have cropped her head, so that her eyes become so powerful, also her neck & breast placed in the diagonal, and finally the kid on that corner. Very Good. I am jealous...

 

I have uploaded the same crop, but this time with some sharpening... what do you think?

Marina, Those things on her face are actually serious burns...

Una imagen con mucha fuerza, gran expresion el el rostro de la madre.

John that could be true and maybe its part of what gives this pic its stark touch of reality.

Conmovedora imagen... lo que le espera a ese bebe.

Poderosisima fotografia!...te felicito!

De nuevo una demostración de la importancia del contacto visual. Emoción y realidad.

¿Podrá ese niño seguir tan bien alimentado de mayor?

Marina,

 

This is a touching portrait. It looks a little soft on my screen, but that wouldn't matter if it was printed in a newspaper since newsprint is more forgiving. It could have also been improved if the young lady wasn't looking directly into the lens. Otherwise, it's a provocative shot that makes me ask a lot of questions. Who is she? What country is she in? Is that skin damage on her face or just some kind of dirt? I would love to see more of your work.
