Artist's Comments

A portrait of my son, not posed. He was just standing there, seemingly admiring the incredible beauty of Creation that was laid out in front of him...and so was I.

...by far one of the most awe inspiring pieces I've seen on DA or ever in my life. Honestly, Mark. This is so simple and yet I still feel so moved by it. The little sillhouette of your son against the massive spanse of nature and his obvious respect and admiration of it...at a loss for the appropriate words, this is a work of great depth and beauty. Thank you, Mark.

How could one not admire this amazing beauty and all its smaller and bigger wonders...
Both the sky and the sea seem endless here compared to the boy's small silhouette. It kind of symbolises man's role in the big scheme...we're just a tiny part of something much much bigger.
Beautiful capture...nothing I could ever describe with words so I'll better shut up.:) (Smile)

Mark, this is absolutely awesome! This is the type of picture that just lets ones imagination run ever so freely . . . lots of wondering and wandering . . . what was Ben thinking . . . or was he even thinking anything in particular . . . and to see him just looking out into that vast expanse of ocean - how cool is that for such a young guy?? And like marble911, I'd best stop now before I make a fool of myself with rambling . . . Suffice it to say - I LOVE this photo Nod +fav

Such a sweet capture, I love his silhouette, and your words so strong and filled with love and wonder.

Nice textures, yep, my magic word...lol. I love the calmness and the contrasts of light and tones, beautiful, Mark. Hug

Again you capture a perfect shot from the coast. Timing is spot on with the water just managing to cover your sons feet.
:) (Smile) great shot.
