I took this photo two years ago and only yesterday I ran into it again. What
it impressed me is how natural and at ease are the subjects with each other
and the camera. What you do you think?

I think the expressions are very nice. It's only a minor thing but I wish that there was a little more DoF or that the daughter was a tad more forward so her eyes would be sharper.

I think its a wonderful moment and as with any moments captured, the technical imorovements fade into irrelevance. intimate eye contact from the daughter and i love the mothers head position. Yu could take that exact same shot 100 times and not get that feeling in the final result.

Great moment Zafra! I am not a fan of the large white border though. I'd suggest playing with other colors and making it much thinner.

I agree, the number of shots I have taken which are 'technically' good and the subjects are frowning or have a funny face are too many to count!

A slight backing off of the vignetting might be the only suggestion I have.
