Very powerful image. The colorful outfits work well against the tan background of the wall.

Wow... nice powerful shot. Although, I think it is a much better, and more powerful image with only the woman and child. The contrasts there are great - young/old, dark/lighter, slightly gaunt/slightly pudgy.

I do agree with Mrcurtain. The woman and the child cropped would be much better.

Wonderful image!!!!

Cropping would be a sin.

There are thousands of mother/child, grandmother/child shots. This is a great group shot. Lots to look at. A really nice horizontal shot that takes your eyes from one side to the other and back.

Wow, great subject. I like the contrast of emotion you've captured in this photo, young and old. The expression on the woman face says it all.

This is very good. You have caught excellent expressions on all the people, and I really like the horizontal style here. Nothing really to add.

Excellent photo, well composed, pretty colors. You captured their personalities so well, playfull children, and concerned grandma. Just the look of the little girl on the far right, and the way she is looking her grandma, is priceless. Bravo! Regards, Djenno

I like all the characters in the photo, clash of generations.
