And baby make three. This is a great shot. Love the sun path, the shadows, etc.

Wonderful composition. A picture that tells me a story. I like the golden glow on the water and in the sky. Great job.
03/17/2009 07:11:55 PM

Top notch photograph. Duo-tone is perfect, and I love the ethereal beautifulness of the sentiment of the photo. Muy Excellente!
03/16/2009 10:55:38 AM
nice moment ;D


five from me , brano
03/16/2009 10:09:51 AM
Nice shot but I think it would be even more effective without the sun in the top part and their complete shadows.
03/16/2009 05:43:46 AM
Nice concept & very well taken.
03/15/2009 11:56:40 PM
We see a lot of the warm family at sunset photos here, and mostly they're not worth the energy it takes to display them ... but this is different. It has a "going toward the light" feeling ... with great definition of the sand and these wonderful banded waves. I think you've overcome the genre. Among best in class.
03/15/2009 11:53:27 PM
I really love this. So emotional.
03/15/2009 11:22:23 PM
Sweet family portrait. Well done.
03/15/2009 09:38:05 PM
I love this series ... I am going to the beach in April ... I am def going to try and this sort of shot
This is beautiful congrats
03/15/2009 09:17:20 PM
very hallmark
03/15/2009 06:12:14 PM
Wonderfully warm and calming shot. Very emotive. Great job!
03/15/2009 04:18:47 PM
What an emotive image, great composition and color.
03/15/2009 01:28:54 PM
What a lovely moment to capture. Looks like something from a greeting card.
03/15/2009 12:45:31 PM
Wonderful placement of the subjects and sun. Very appealing photo.
03/15/2009 12:18:56 PM
Classic... Beautiful composition and tones. Full of life, energy, and emotion.
03/15/2009 12:00:44 PM
Really nice, would make a lovely greeting card or inspirational poster.

ahh I remember a similar one to this very well. It is still enjoyable to see this. Nice distinct silhouttes , nice tones. 7
03/14/2009 11:42:09 PM
I like this, it gives a great sense of family. I probably would have darkened the area around mom and child that the sun took out, but it's not a big deal.
03/14/2009 11:05:43 PM
love the warmth in this
03/14/2009 09:21:07 PM

03/14/2009 05:05:01 PM

Nice silhouette and good shadow effect on the beach.
03/14/2009 08:51:36 AM
Wonderful image that radiates warmth, beauty, love and eternity. 8
03/14/2009 08:24:30 AM
*exceptional* composition with a very good use of lines and repeating themes.

3 people.
3 sun spots
3 waves
3 primary areas (sky, sea, land)

The balance of light and shadow is also very, very well done here.

First 10 of the challenge for me :)
03/14/2009 03:33:48 AM
Beautyful picture
03/13/2009 08:50:58 PM
Great work. Nice comp and tones.
03/13/2009 02:31:31 PM
Voted earlier coming back to leave comments. An evening stroll at the beach during low tide watching the waves as the sun slowly sinks in the horizon casting it's last warm golden rays for the day. I LOVE the warm golden hues in this composition. The young couple with their little one hand in hand between them as they enjoy the sights and sounds of the beach adds alot of visual interest to this beachscape capture. Nicely done!
03/13/2009 01:15:19 PM
nicely framed/cropped. could be a postcard (9)
03/13/2009 08:29:33 AM
Lovely silhouette and story. Nice detail and great colors. 9
03/13/2009 05:23:55 AM
Yup, good chance for a ribbon here. Hope you have this up on a stock site as it would sell really well..
03/12/2009 05:53:29 PM
Nicely family shot! I really like this capture.
03/12/2009 05:44:45 PM
Reminds me a bit of Spielberg's film "Close Encounters of the Third Kind", walking from the alien ship with the light from behind ...
03/12/2009 05:31:14 PM
Nice composition, well captured scene with very strong horizontal lines and diagonals to break up the horizon.
03/12/2009 03:35:35 PM
makes me think of those inspirational posters, or an apocalyptic movie poster.
03/12/2009 12:19:16 PM
nice silohuette and sunset, good luck
03/12/2009 10:14:13 AM

One of my favorite images. I love the textures in the sand & sea, and the light is gorgeous.
03/12/2009 07:00:05 AM
This is lovely, the light, the silhouettes, makes for a great family feeling
03/11/2009 10:15:42 PM

Perfect moment, colors and exposure.
03/11/2009 02:28:53 PM
This should be used for a motivational poster.
03/11/2009 01:57:53 PM

Beautiful colors and silhouettes. I like the shadows.
03/11/2009 08:13:04 AM
Did you try turning that around and using a fill flash? It may have been a real nice photo too.
