    Nice…

    …although the shadows are blocking up a bit (…OK, so what would you expect? …it is contra-jour after all! rolleyes1.gif)

    …I personally think the kid's worried that his mom is going to lose her head…


    …oh, she has!


    …but his sister doesn't seem to mind though… headscratch.gif

    Nice job, Benjamin!

    Well seen!

    This is wonderful. I love the tension, and the implied story.

    The original so captures the downtrodden emotion of the boy. The follow up photo adds an unexpected twist to the story.

    Well done!

    Good capture. I especially like seeing both photographs. It makes me wonder where the family has been and what is wrong. Seems like more going on than just a kid in a bad mood.

    I don't mind the missing head in the first photo. To me it helps keep the focus on the child/children, but I can see that for some it could be distracting.

    That said, for me the second is the keeper. Very powerful.
