This is wonderful and sensitive capture of love, Songbird. Beautifully done! #1441645Songbird Cline February 06, 2012
Thank you for appreciating the photo.. I struggled a lot in deciding if I ought to share it.. It was a sad time in our lives. The photo really brings home the reality of people who care and need one another. My mother passed away shortly after this photo was taken and my now 92 year old father deeply misses her. #9968308JudyAnn Rector February 06, 2012
An incredibly touching image, Songbird... I love that you chose to do it in B&W so the focus is soley on the beauty of the moment. I am honored that you shared it with us. Being a senior in ill health, your image gives me hope and encouragement that my loved ones will always be with me. #9968342Karen Kessler February 07, 2012

A very emotional time, and your image would certainly bring a tear every time you looked at it, Songbird. This fits the MT so well. Very best of luck with it, it hits strong and hard. #9974553Mark Seiter February 14, 2012
