Great effect, Lorraine. It looks so bleak. Gives the impression of high wind. The b/w adds to the starkness. I like it.

It's bad enough going shopping when you are a kid but when your mum drags you out into the cold snow thats just the pits. Nice bit of time shifting effect there Lorraine :-)

Rebecca from Leicester, United Kingdom
Utterly beautiful, dear lady Lorraine. You know how much I love your b&w people shots, and this one must stand way at the head of it all. I love, love, love this treatment, and somehow am deeply moved through the whole feel of this piece. Truly a tremendous moment captured and evoked of mother and child braving this all-pervading chill, especially at this time of year. Really truly utterly BRAVO, and WOW.

@Rebecca: Thanks so much Rebecca, I always enjoy your lovely comments :)
