Photographer's Note
On the way to the Lotus Temple in India, I was standing on the line, and this beautiful child was having eye contact with me, such tender, so deep thoughts about one's children future, find formulas to ease their way, remove as much obstacles as we can, after all, they did not ask to come to this world...

Hello Nelson,
How could you not record this!
The eye-contact is so engaging and I love the symbolism of the small child being wrapped in his mother's love.
It's a beautifully composed photograph, the twinkling eyes strongly placed.
My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Hi Nelson
His inquisitive eyes have in your photo been immortalised in a very thoughtful black and white photo. How unusual that the ladies clothing features the Apple logo so much :)
Best wishes

Excellent bl/w portrait, Nelson. A few odd things strike me (the hand of the kid and is that the Apple-logo on the clothes?)...they make the shot even more interesting.
Nice work, thanks for sharing it.

Hello Nelson
his eyes say "take me in picture!"
Interseting B&W image, but you framed too tight the 2 heads, cutting them, more space at left and top should have been better
Cheers

Olá, Nelson!
A expressão no rosto da criança foi muito bem captada, com excelente iluminação, e os padrões criados pela estampa do pano deixam a foto ainda mais bonita e interessante! Excelente trabalho!

Hello Nelson
That's my middle name too by the way! I love your monochrome treatment of this image, which is quite brave, as I imagine the colour of the scene was quite vibrant. But the b/w allows us to concentrate on the essentials: the beautiful child with those huge eyes, and the mother's patterned sari. Wonderful street grab-shot (I guess Mum didn't even know you'd taken it), and a touching and thoughtful note to accompany it. Good work!
Regards
Will

Hello Nelson
Nice portrait you captured on the way to the Lotus Temple in India.
Nice face and eyes of a child and scarf woman who wears it.
A great choice for black and white narrow fotmat.
Kind regards
