i know the focus is soft but getting an 8 yr old and 5 year old granddaughter to hold a "giggle" is beyond my ability; although had I to do it over again I would use a faster shutter and compensate aperature and ISO; alas they got on the plane for home before a reshoot! Anyway I got them in a moment that illustrate the love sisters have for one another no matter the age.

This is a great shot. It really brings out "familiy". The overall quality is good, but the focus is softer on the younger sibling. It might look better if they were both equal.
The lighting in this is a bit harsh, and the image is flat. Depending on your editing program, you might try increasing the Contrast or playing with the Levels to give the image more pop
Great candid b&w of these two sisters...it is so spontaneous and wonderful..great expression and lighting with a natural feeling, nothing about this appears staged..well done!
Really sweet! Couple of hotspots, but certainly do not detract from this lovely scene. (PS, a slight crop of the right side would remove the most distracting hotspot and balance the composition, but I will not vote less for that).
awww. this is beautiful and happy, and endearing. maybe a little closer cropping of the upper & right would have improved it, but there isn't much about it that needs to be better. good job!
This photo is great, I wanted to do one similar with my brother but we go to different schools and live in different cities so it didn’t' work out.
I like this photo because it looks sincere and real. I also really like the black and white treatment. I hope you frame this one and keep it around the house. My score
