Hi Nick,

Wonderful warm image.

Composition - nice, simple and to the point.

Framing - Very well done like the fact the you filled the frame with your subjects leaving little if any dead space.

Focus - I realize your attention was focused on the heart and hand of the child but I would have liked to have seen the childs face a bit clearer here seems a bit soft. Don't get me wrong I think works well here more of a personal preference.

Exposure - There are some hot spots most noticeable on the childs forearm and in the backgroud between mom & child, and again behind childs left shoulder.

Overall - Well done, simple warm image that makes it point.

Very nice. The square crop works well here, I think

The baby isn't as sharp as I would have liked...

The light here is a little bright and the pictures seems to be overexposed in some areas.

Cute! I think it might have been even better if the focus was on the child though... ;)

Lovely mother and child shot, the slight softness of the focus brings the sharpness of the childs hand out on the pendant wonderfully

A lovely family portrait. I like that the focus is sharpest at the amulet itself.

The emphasis on the child's face is nice.

Lovely moment: the DOF is a bit shallow though. All focus is on the hand - would have loved the baby's face to be clear as well.
