Together for life
by markwiley

Comment:
Having children and still a small daughter, I look for these type shots, perhaps I understand the times before and after, the need, want and futile longing to freeze a certain spot in life. Photography lets us all relate and freeze that moment.

Before children, before my daughter, (the figurative and perhaps literal completion of a certain cycle of my life) I never felt as alive, never felt purpose in the same way as I do now.

We all need to be needed- and for me this hits on a specific instance and situation. Perhaps it will translate to the childless, or those at different stages of their lives.

Sorry to ramble, and yes I did get a bit choked up as well. 10 from me.

Her eyesight's gotten fuzzy but her wisdom's got sharp

You kept some great detail, and having the crucial area of light and dark of the shot range directly at the face, between the blackness of the void and the white of the garment.

Perhaps the wearing of white in some cultures represents the aspect of reflective mourning, as opposed to black in some other cultures, even though it may just be a scarf it has a quasi-religious feel to it. All in all, very well done.

you are beautiful
