Description For my grandparents, who I didn't get to know for they left when I was still young. I like to think thier journey was a peaceful one, and everyday I pray that more leaves don't fall off the family tree. I really miss them, I didn't get to fully experience what it would have felt like to live under thier shade or wisdom.

Really nice photo, nice concept. I love the blue color and the peace of the water wtih the reflection of the darky sky blue and the clouds, give you a calmness.

Lovely composition.

This is so beautiful, and so eloquently described. I didn't get to know two of my grandparents either, so I understand about the leaves falling. This is such a powerful image. Well done + fav.

Thank you. I feel your loss too. It took a long time to realise just how much I wish they'd still be here, but the older I get I think more about what might have been.
