Not sure why this hasn't been commented on, but I like it. The only thing is the focus doesn't seem to be quite on the eyes.

An very evocative shot that looks well exposed in awkward bright sun light [though possibly a bit of laditional light on mums face might help it be even better, otherwise very nice

Thanks guys, the sun light was just soooo bright that day, I really struggled to hold any exposures, but the depth of feeling in the eyes in both mother and child makes it worth sharing, my main interest is wildlife, but I made some great friends along the way and had many humbling encounters with aids children, its a fantastic country to visit.

What a fantastic picture. I love the colours and the expressions on the faces of the mother and her baby are amazing. The shot looks balanced too and I think this helps to grab the attention and draw you in. Well done!
