“That’s Life”

Shot to show how lucky we are to be able to live the lifestyle we wish, where others do not have that choice, the guy in the wheel chair has spent 28 0f his 34 years in a chair because of a medical condition that struck him at 6yrs. He comes down to the pier every day at early morning to watch the activities of the new day. He does enjoy life, and said, “That’s Life.”

The warm lighting adds strength to this photo, and the composition is strong. The pole on the left side of the pier is distracting (realize you couldn't clone it out in basic, however). 6.

Nice shot! It's freezing cold here, so it looks so fesh and summery seeing this warm-weather sunrise scene. Very well taken. I love the concept of life just happening. Great job.

Good mix of things going on, but none of them seem connected or associated with the photo. In fact almost the complete opposite, with them all looking away from the camera, out of the frame or off into the distance. My eye just leaves with them and doesn't really find anything to bring me back or retain my interest.

Great shot. Really like the "moment in time" and how the pier continues on.

Now this is a very special image, and I love the fact of the differances life deal us, re the people here on our earth. We have a lovely balance with a person in a wheel chair, the young lady noticing this person, the two chaps about to pass him, and the fisherman in the background. All of them celebration life in their own way. All of them equals to me, and thats what I like so much about this image.....
