Very dark and minimalistic, but I like it. Makes the message of mother and sun VERY strong. 10

I love the shot, but i would have cropped out more of the bottom part to eliminate SO much black.

highly effective iconic treatment of mother and child. The smaller they are, the more universal they become. 8

Bit too much negative space top & bottom for me, otherwise a nice idea.

Lovely shot,but I would like to see the subject much bigger in the frame.

A bit too much emptiness on the bottom. Would benefit from a tight crop, IMO.

Very cool silhouette - I like the way the mother and son are framed by the water's reflection. I think this could be improved by cropping some of the foreground.

Negativity used to good effect here with the low natural light.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 10/01/2006 09:23:42 AM
I like the effect, but I think it would work better cropped to have them on the lower right third line.

  Photographer found comment helpful.

good shot, lots of feeling in this photo
i think i would have liked it better if you could have zoom in closer and not had so much negative space in the lower half of the photo
