C'est joli et tendre! L’ours donne une grande force à l'image! Et cette antinomie entre le sujet et le traitement est très créatif!!

Roman from Thunder Bay, Canada
Great job Madzia, love the composition here and that feel of an old photograph. The only thing I have.... hm... those blown highlights in the shirts are somewhat distracting. Sometimes it might work when imitating that old photography style and feel (and I guess it does work here) but still, digital is so different than paper. On paper, even in the blown highlights, you still get that film grain, in digital, it is just a white blotch that starts and ends very abruptly without any smooth gradation. Bring back the details in the shirts somewhat (if you shot in RAW, they still should be there) and you have a composition worth hanging on the wall.
cheers
Roman

@Roman: Thank you Roman! :) The original photo is actually underexposed so I have all the detail in my RAW file - I just have to figure out how to brighten up the photo without blowing up the whites ;) Also, the texture I added at the very end made the photograph even brighter.... hmmmm I should try to apply the texture first then play with the contrast. ;) Thank you for your valuable comment.

zOOm from Paris, France
Nice sepia tone and hint, it really evoks tenderness. A timeless shot also, due to the fact that their clothes do not show any modern details.. could have been shot in the eraly 1900. Great frame as well. Eyecatching. Bravo Magda.

Susan from Fort Lauderdale, FL, United States
Very cute, and very creepy, and here's why...Last night, I watched the movie "AI-Artificial Intelligence". And in the movie, the "human robot" had a "toy", which was also a robot, named Teddy, and it was a little human-like teddy bear......so any other day I would LOVE this shot, but today, it brings back that creepy movie!!! Beautiful shot though, and love those interlocking arms!!
21 Sep 2009 10:15pm
@Susan: LOL I remember that movie! I see why this image brings back those creepy feelings ;) Thank you Susan for sharing that with me! :))
