I wrote a rather long comment about this image attached to the gallery thread from which I'll simply quote:
"There is something really lovely and delicate about this image. The blur of her head adds some mystery and leads the viewer (at least this viewer) to wonder about her state of mind. The gate suggests that parenthood can feel like imprisonment sometimes (no matter how much you love your kids, let's face it, the work can be exhausting). The doubling of her image in the mirror adds a lot of strength. I think back to our kids being that age and wondering how my wife didn't lose her mind during the long winter days trapped indoors when it was too cold to take a toddler outdoors. I see a lot of deep psychology at play in this image. Perhaps it's not really going on in the lives of the subjects, but regardless, you've captured a state of mind with great power."
An amazing image in my estimation.
