Taken in the Salem Gardens, cold November day. Wanted to make it seem much colder yet intimate and "fleeting". Tanked saturation almost entirely but leaving a hint of the colder colors of the photo. Cropping, contrast, levels, selective desharp, etc. First entry of mine here.

oh, thank goodness for cameras! i know this will be an image that will be treasured many, many years from now. i doubt if any score on dpc will ever do it justice. thanks for sharing this moment. good luck with this, and with all the challenges yet to come!
Well it might have been fleeting but you have captured this moment very well. The focus seems a little off, but that might even heighten the feeling of tenderness this image conveys.
Back to comment...
I really like the way you`ve captured this with the child looking at the camera but the adult looking down..it helps to add a candid feel to the image.
I would have preferred a tighter crop (losing the hand) and a touch more sharpness to make this a top pick for me..but I`m bumping it up as it still has a lot to offer.
