Comment from Larusminor
I like your picture very much. Very nostalgic. Brings my old memories back.
I love the composition, and every figure in it. Perhaps, the lady's reflection is my favorite.
Thank you very much for sharing.

Comment from Joelgraphuchin
Initial impact: a balanced composition
Creativity of presentation: Keeping the dark water at the right upper part is nice to build dimension
Color Harmony: eye-pleasing black and white
Center of Interest: the image is clear and clean. Great Placement of the stranger and seagull.
Technical Excellence: framing is nice

Well done and thanks for sharing.
