Expertly captured and a sepia that enhances the tonal beauty. Bumping up. And yet another bump.

I would have liked to see this in a black and white.. 8

Essence of motherhood here :-) The bright hat rim upper left is a problem that easily could have been fixed in advanced editing.

very nice... the only gripe: it looks like you were shooting for a "sepia" color, but on monitor it looks a bit too yellow/greenish. I'd add in a little bit of red to warm it up, but otherwise it's beautiful.

You definitely captured the moment here. This is beautiful. I like your use of sepia to give it a timeless feel.

Beautifully toned shot, love it.

This is really nice, and in my top 1/3rd. Constructive criticism: I would have preferred a little more exposure on the mother.

Nice composition. I like that the brush is the brightest part of the image.

really cute

Back for comments. A very nice capture thats sure to score well. However I would've liked to see a stronger focus on the mother as she is almost a secondary element in the shot. Well done.

I like the sepia. If this is posed, it's done naturally enough. If it's a candid, it's a great capture. 8

I love this shot; a great capture of a moment between mother and child. I like the duotone as well, gives it a nice warm feel. After looking at it for a while, I realize that the dark strip (corner of the building I guess) on the right distracts a bit - my eye keeps being drawn to that dark area. Otherwise, and lovely shot.

Nice! The sepia tone makes the pic have a warmnth feeling!

Very cute image. I would have cropped a little more of the right side out and brought the Mother more into the picture. Nice PS work though.

I like the light and the texture of the child's skin -- so smooth, with no blown highlights.
