I love this shot. Perfect use of thirds. Love the HDR feel of this. The colors are rich and pure. Wonderful sharpness and clarity. Even the shadow adds to the story. Presented well and really nicely done.

Aww she looks so peaceful.
Great shot.
Good color and lighting.
The rocks really add a different look than all the normal sandy beach shots.
Gives more detail.
Good capture ;)

A lovely capture of this woman sitting alone enjoying the peace and beauty of the ocean. Looks like what I would like to do when I'm her age. Excellent focus and composition.

This looks as if it could be an old painting. Very good details of the sand and water. A calm and relaxed feeling. Great job.

This is gorgeous. The water is so nicely blue. The umbrella adds to the beauty of the water. The elderly lady looks like she is so peaceful and serene. I like the way you composed the picture by not putting her in the center of the picture but off to the side. Great technique.

I really like this very much! The composition is a classic example of rule of thirds. The image is so very simple but says so very much. The editing is beautiful. I really love the colors!

A really nice photo. The dark blue umbrella in front of blue sea works very well. How far was she from the group? It would be nice to see some indication of where they are.otherwise she is alone.. But how would I feel if you didn't tell me.

    Thank you very much for the review. She was not that far away from the rest, but the idea behind this shot was to show her on her own. To involve other people would have ruined the effect.

What a fantastic photograph Annie. I just love everything about this image. The simple composition is so striking and the detail is superb - the tone mapping has been done to perfection, highlighting all the textures. The limited colour palette is perfect too. An outstanding photograph - very well seen and captured. I love it!
