 this is special in that I don't know what's wrong with it (but I am certain something is wrong, as not only its color version barely broke 5 with the voters, but worse, it drew no comment during voting period). Your insight is welcome.

I really don't know what's wrong with it, either. The black and white holds much more emotion, somehow, than the color one. That's my own opinion. I think this is beautiful.

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.
