Description

Youth fades; love droops; the leaves of friendship fall; A mother's secret hope outlives them all
- Oliver Wendell Holmes

You always find your mother standing with you,
Through the good and the bad,
sunrise and the sunset,
constantly giving you hope so that you can sail through the dark hours of life....

Note: I was insisting on tighter crop, maybe it didn't work.
Now the image is with the different crop as suggested in the top three comments.

Good exposure

Nice scene

A little awkward compositionally

I'd recommend a bit more room on the bottom and right-side, and a little less of the sky and left side. A nice scene overall -- keep shooting

Nice concept

Agreed: why not more space on the right and the bottom. Sharpness could be better too.

As stated by others.

a little more space on the people's right side would help the composition.

I don't like the half-and-half composition. Think you can crop from either beach or sky a little.

Great that you have these people in the composition.

i like the theme...very touching....
keep it up dost...maybe if i would have clicked it, i would have a part of the feet of everyone in and more of the shadow on the beach...revealing that she would always be there, even the shadows never leaving us...

keep it up

All the right elements, people, sky, water, sun, and feeling. Composition isn't quite there without more image on the right.

Beautiful. I would crop some from top to improve the composition problem mentioned by moserArtist. Very nice colours and reflection.

Nice lighting and reflections. I agree with the others - the people look good and all the elements are there, but this could be better composed.

A bit more space on the right would help, and I would crop a bit of the sand and give it a bit more of sky. Just my opinion...
Still nice work.
