The photo is a little better with an explanation but really captures the feeling describrd. You can tell the younger one is glad the older is around. Telling photo, great job,

Nice use of near-silhouette lighting.

You've nailed the title with this image (& vice-versa). The expression in little sister's eye says total trust to me. Well done. 7

nice emotion from their expressions. like the backlighting. the grain and odd contrast just don't feel right.

I like the positioning and the expressions here. I'm not sure of your intentions with the lighting though. This meets the challenge very well.

Nice idea, seems like a harsh shadow on younger girls face. Would have liked a little more fill light.

Good shot, I'm a fan of the B&W choice. The content is great for the challenge.

good b&w.... well composed and great use of contrast. little too set up for my taste but because i respect your creativity and choice i will never mark a good pic down.

This photo seems to dark to me and a little gariny. It was probably better in color.

Too much backlight, I have troubles with this as well, but it comes with practise I hope. Great idea for a picture.

Cute pose and emotional shot. I wish you'd used fill-flash to balance the over-bright BG and give some more detail to the FG.

The figures are too shadowed for my taste. Their placement in the shot is good, but I'd work on the lighting to really bring them up and into focus.

nice shot of sisters. I do not quite pick up a look of trust - but over all this was well composed and I like the white background.
