Do you see it?

[ahickman]

Heya DPS,

Happy Monday to ya! I wasn't sure where to post this since I am not really looking for a "critique" on my shot, but I was just wondering what you....feel when you see this one. I was trying to capture an emotion when I took this. I was just curious if I nailed it. I will take any/all feedback, thoughts, etc. My main question is, What does this make you feel?



As always, thanks guys! I love DPS!

Makes me feel like the poor kid just hit her head. Judging byt he way she is holding her head
Her skin is a bit red fromthe reflection of her jammies. Probably because of the flash. Easy fix in post.

I'm getting a sense of confusion... but I don't have any children of my own yet, so perhaps I have a lot to learn!

I was going for frustration, but confusion fits in here as well. Thanks for the comments

The thought I have when I see this is . . . Do I have to wake up? Why can't you just leave me?

Nice

Thanks CW, lol, that is how I feel most mornings. Some days I think my poor hubby is afraid to attempt to wake me.

I was just worried that I was reading more into this because I am her mother. I see her everyday (and I took the picture) so I KNOW what she was feeling, I just wondered if others could see it too. My heart aches each time I see this shot, I just want to reach out and hug her. Being a mommy is tough!
