Mother's shoulder ...

Soothing comfort on mom's shoulder...

Delight! Wonderful capture! Regards / Janis

Jani,

Thank you, I contemplated cropping a bit on both sides ...

I think u shouldn't (finally) crop any sides... i first though about cropping the background when viewed as a thumbnail, but then i noticed two well described areas... the eyes and fingers...

so its pure and balanced as it is..

i have a special feeling about this picture as i bite my nails, too!!!! :( maybe this is the reason that I didnt notice the mother around... & I would personally give another headline)

 

(Antoni, do u possibly have any suggestions on the type of camera/lenses I should buy? i only have a canonpowershot530 am going for a slr.. - thank u 4 for being there anyways)

Manthy, thanks for your comment. It's nice to hear from you. I am definitely biased towards Pentax. I think that it offers a great value with pro functionality. I love prime lenses. Pentax, Sigma and Tamron make great glass for the Pentax bodies. I like Adobe's Lightroom for minimum processing. So you better save your money for this expensive SLR sea... Take your time and post questions on the forums here. With all that said, I truly believe that it is not about the camera, it is about the work and enthusiasm one puts into it...

Great shot, I would crop the left side a bit...

Thank u Antoni, ur words are of great importance for me. I prefer to ask people that I believe I know some of their values, and Unfortunately I have no much time and mood to understand and enjoy forums here.. Thank u! BTW i love this photo

It's the eye and the brain that make the image,not the media,I agree.Only pros search for the top of the line tools that offer the best quality,because they badly need it.Someone must not be concerned for the quality only,but in composition and learning to see the light.

You've done an excellent job here.

Best regards.

Tom, thanks for the suggestion, I contemplated the thought and decided to leave it as is...

The comfort zone. Perfect composition. I love the B&W. You have a sharp you to capture this moment and turn it into art. well done

Manthy, thanks for the comment about the photo. What did you decide to do?

Photi, thanks for being so gracious, we do our best with what we have...
