Emotions shown within the characters. The mother is holding her daughters shoulder as if to hold her back. The mother has a drug problem which her daughter witnesses on a regular basis. I wanted the mother to look like she is saying ‘sorry’ as she grabs her daughters shoulder. The little girl hides behind her long hair, isolating herself from her mother. The only face in the image with a smile is the teddy bear which is a object of comfort for her daughter to hold onto. This image was selected for the picture of the week in the Advent Photoshop publication.
