Comment from Artyval
Hands are so expressive and very difficult to draw. This study shows the trust that the little one has in his mentor. Every wrinkle and line in the adult hands make them so individualand this one is weathered with age and obviously belongs to one of the older members of the family.A thoughtful picture-so well drawn.

Comment from Anne
This is such a touching and beautiful picture the way you have done it. I like the coloring and the way you have done the softness in the background. The angle of the shot and the way you have filled the frame is excellent. Just an excellent photograph and one that I am sure you will always cherish.

Comment from Sange
Creative and clever close-up. The title says it ALL!
There is no fear in love, when the slightest doubt enters in, the trust is broken. LOVE the lighting and edit. The black and white makes it more emotive and sets the mood of the shot.
This is simply lovely in every way.
SOCKS are off and I am freezing! =)

Comment from julika
wow - what an image and I am out of six stars ! This fantastic. It looks like pencil sketch or engraving. A most poignant image that has universal appeal as their figures and faces are not shown.Understated but most effective lighting giving subtle shadows. The background is perfect in contrasting the image. Wonderful work.I wish you all the best in that contest......this has " winner" written all over it.!!
