    Tom,

    Love it. Great motion blur, wonderful expression, and I love the hands around the child. My only nitpick would be that the lighting seems a bit off, but other than that, wonderful capture.

    Well done,

    Jared

    I think I disagree with Jared on this one especially about the inclusion of the hands. They are not tender hands in this case more clutching and careful and uncomfortable trying to ensure the safety of the child. So I would remove the hands and clone out Dads shoulder.
    The little girl needs to frame all to herself I feel.

    I have a total lack of respect for anything connected with society, except that which makes the roads safer, the beer stronger, the food cheaper, and the old men and old women warmer in the winter and happier in the summer. Brendan Behan
