Hi Ken - This one has some great expressions on the faces, the exuberence and joy of youth and the suspicion of age. I like the way the legs of the 2 women mirror each other also. I also like the color here, it's very natural. Well done.

Hi Ken
very good DOF over here ... this is another land that I want to visit sometime ... the young girl is so photogenic, but the grandma does'nt really like the idea of being photograph .. but than the contrast between the expression of the ladies is what makes this shot great ... cheers man .. nice shot

Ken,
The girl is beautiful and you have captured this so well here. Her smile and position are perfect. The grandmother's pose is a nice contrast. This speaks to me of the
open-mindedness of youth in contrast with our cynicism as we age. Thanks!

I had not seen this picture, Ken, since some days the servor is really very slow...
It's a nice one, very well composed, wirth nice colors, even the touch of green in the background.Indeed, what I like most is the different attitude and expression of the 2 subjects.Well done.

Hi Ken
This is a very nice shot - I like the pose of the women, their expressions are interesting, they seem to be looking at something to your side. Good colour and composition, but you could have included just a little more at the bottom to not cut across the girls heel.
Its grannies green boot that does it for me though - fabulous
cheers, David

Nice shot Ken. Good POV and DOF. Like the other David, I like the granny's green boot. I don't think cutting off the girl's heel detracts too much from your framing - cutting off the green boot would have been a different story! Cheers . . . David
