Great Photo. Very smart to leave the mother's face out of it as she dyes her hands. Intimacy displayed during an everyday moment, effortless. And pretty much straight from the camera, bravo!

I love the fact that the boy is looking right at the camera while leaning into the mother figure.

What a beautiful feeling of intimacy on the child's part... the mom is still working and so seems disinterested. I've read once that one should not crop right at a body joint (elbow) as it is not as pleasing as cropping mid limb. I think that advice would have helped here.

brilliant photojournalism. beautiful photo.

Man, there is nothing even close to this in the rest of the challenge. I hope you get the blue. In the meantime I'm giving you my blue.

What a lovely composition, and the tones are so soothing! A great comfort to the eye, this, found within so many tacky entries...

that child is pretty darn cute but I just don't see how it projects "intimacy"
