Lovely :) I would have liked to have seen more of the baby's head, rather than the photo being cropped for the woman's head. I like the eye-contact. Nice shot :)

The crop seems a little too tight, I would pull back just a little. But WOW, what a great capture!

This is awesome Mark! I actually like the tight crop which really makes you focus onthe eyes/nose/mouth. I think you could even go further withit and cropout the dark area onthe right hand side of the frame making this a purely high-key image. This definitely captures "Joy" IMHO.

Thanks Jarrett. Your opinion is ALWAYS valued. I did consider cropping out everything but the faces, as lately, I find high key images compelling. I just didn't have the guts to do it for this shot. I have one on my site where I did crop just as you suggest. Thanks again.

I would have preferred a color version for a theme like Joy. B&W just seems cold and lifeless even though the composition fits the theme.
