Comment from Mr Jones

another great seascape picture. again great colour and majestic looking sea craft. a spiritual sunrise and magical moment captured. a few seconds either way and you would have lost the photo. water has a rather wonderful ripple effect.

Thank yo very much. You are spot on. Those shots are a matter of patience and timing and just luck. Every sunrise/sunset is different.

Comment from CammyCards

Truly superb image. Lighting is perfect with no glare from the sun. The picture is both serene and haunting. The
accompanying poem is a delight. Very nice all together.

Thank you very much! I was lucky.Mother nature helped me with this. There was something like haze over the sun.

What a perfect quote to go with this image. I can certainly see being rocked to sleep on this lullaby bay. Great composition. Strong focus and clarity. Beautiful color tones.

Thank you for another lovely review. I always loved the song. I really don't know from were it came into my head, but even it was morning and the sun was going up, the song came instantly into my head.

Comment from Jean A Cormier

Hmm...do I see another painting in the works perhaps? SOme don't believe he sky and the water can carry that golden glow-I see it in FLorida sometimes and it is spectacular! Think about painting this one! Jean

I love that song - and I love your fabulous photograph. I'm truly sorry not to have a higher rating left - this really is superb. Wonderful composition and the most uplifting of images.

Gorgeous image Cleo. Placement of boat could not be more perfect.

I loved the verse that accompanied your image. I hope all is well with you Cleo.
Has your husband recovered?

Thank you Bren, Good to hear from you!
How have you been?
I am OK.
My husband died last September. After eight months of unbelievable suffering; it seemed like a blessing for him, but it still hurts.

reply by yourbren on 06-Feb-2014

Oh Cleo, I am so sorry. It is so hard to lose a husband, a constant companion. I know it is hard to see them suffer yet still so difficult to let them go. You have been so strong through it all but I imagine you were able to be so strong for him. It is much harder to be strong for yourself but if anyone can manage, it is you Cleo. You are blessed with an inner strength that is apparent in your work. While, that strength doesn't make the loss easier, it is there and will serve you well. I have thought of you so frequently and always with deep admiration.

If you find you need to talk to someone Cleo, you can write me at yourbren@aol.com. I would only be happy to provide you with an outlet for the emotions I know you must be experiencing. Bren

Thank you very much.
I hope you are not offended, but I always did better coping on my own. I am OK.
Sorry if I insulted you. I do not mine to insult.
Cleo

reply by yourbren on 09-Feb-2014

Not to worry Cleo. You do very well on your own and I am not at all insulted. I merely made the offer available to you, should you wish it. Bren

I know, you are a friend I can trust in any situation. :o)
Thank you again!

Comment from Regina E.H-Ariel

A very beautiful and romantic scene with this boat as silhouette in the sunset light - beautiful ambiance, a great golden moment, a dream shot, bringing a peaceful moment - again an image that is perfect for a quote card - , your angel and position as well as the distance are perfectly chosen , super focus , contrast and lighting, technically perfect in details - a wonderful image, well done
