 Man! I played around with this thing for what seemed like forever. Polarizer (I think) gave me a little banding in the blue sky. After countless tries of selecting the sky, or selecting the people, with various feathering, no ghosting, etc...I think I finally have something to submit.

The idea for the photo is the man and child are waiting for someone to come back home. Who? That's up to the viewer to decide. :-)

Originally I was holding the flowers, and my son the teddy bear. Switched around for a couple of shots and I thought this might add a little twist to the plot. :-D

Nicely composed. Not sure I recognize the song title.

Looks like saturation was pushed too far

Nice concept. The man and child are out of focus which really detracts from the effect.
