Yep, they are part of my extended family.

Mita, this is a superb image (goes to my favorites). Yes, that's what I imagined it to become, to go to the essence. Print it big and put it on the wall.

(now, one more thing if I may, what about cropping from the left and top so that we won't see the contour of the mother's arm? Thus, we'll concentrate only on the baby's marvelous composure)

I just love the way you edited it to make the light more subtle. ;)

Beautiful image. I love the foggy fade off - and the tones.

Almost looks like two images. The tree and the moon are great. I guess the fun part is on the bottom part of this photo :)

I think the colour version works better because in black and white the baby's face is hard to 'read' against the mother's.

The baby's face is exceptional! It's like a Picasso.
I cannot but look at this image as if it's a painting or a drawing, therefore I wish that the mother's arm would fade or be totally in the dark or simply cropped (leave the tattoo on the shoulder though).
I was very impressed by the original image also. I do not want to tamper with your image, but if I were you I would play more with it in terms of cropping the arm. It's a spectacular image.

For me it is primarily the layering of the baby's face over the mother's that holds this back. I really want to see that sweet baby's profile clearly against the background. Hope this helps.
