What a touching image Kurt. Your PP gives this a bit of a shaky look which reminds me of one of the symptoms of the disease.

Ah! What a feel in this picture! The pose, and composition is simply wonderful!

p.s. I am wondering why you softened it. It does add the soft feel though, but perhaps a clear sharper picture would have worked even better. Just guessing!

Excellent use of soft focus.

Very striking shot. There's something a little off about it though, it has a softness which doesn't quite look right. I think the softness in this image is a good approach, but for some reason here it looks like you have one picture overlaid on top of another, but very slightly offset.

Nice crop and pp, emotive. Sorry about the PD.

Great moment I really like the idea, the softness probably works for most people becasue of the reverence, but I would have liked it to be a little sharper
