Very Monet.

Inspires one to reach back to his/her childhood.

Great use of colors. You can almost smell the rain and feel the wind.

Excellent composition. Wouldn't have seen it was raining without the figures and their reflections. Not only have you captured a soft view of the elements, there is a playfulness in the child running to catch up with mom(?). It makes a break from what would have otherwise been another nicely done landscape. Composition is excellent. I love how there is the lightness of more clouds after the break of the rainclouds. Very well done.

i do. i like the varied colors you have shown in the painting, the soft pastels against the colorful raincoats of the child and adult really add to the photo.

Yes, the people and the perspective created by the stone walls too. I can hear the little girl playfully stomping through the puddles. Excellent work on the sky, the clouds, and especially the mountainside colors. Most enjoyable to view. Thanks.

Fantastic timing of exposure, the colours look great too. Initial impact, story telling and technique are all excellent. Great capture though.

Love it. All the positives apply, dramatic sky, great clarity with the painted image framed properly, great story telling features, and the colors and tones are meshed completely making for a very good story telling landscape.

Another nice composition, you have captured the area very well. I feel wet looking at it. I really like the way you have done the sky with a hint of blue and sun shine. Fred

What a lovely art work that is stirring and moving. I think you did a great job of representing a beautiful scene in a way that causes one to think. Great colors and lighting as well.

This is lovely...despite being an obviously rainy day that hint of better weather lifts the spirits. I love the whole general romantic feel to it. Very nicely done!
