Luckily, it was an overcast day and they didn't need much shade. (5 years and 283 days ago)

Nice pic. I would have cropped the right side because of the branches in the corner, then cropped a bit of the sky also to balance and to tighten the focus on the trees. 
And you have a dust spot between the mum and dad trees, you should erase it. I won't tell.

Thanks for the comments.
I did notice the bit of leaves at the corner, but cropping it out would reduce too much of the blue part of the sky, (about an inch off), and could "unbalance" the over all effect of a seaside feel to the image with the trees looming too large in the foreground.
For the life of me, I can't see the "dust spot", at least not with my 69 year old eyes?

The spot is between them, just over their heads. It might not be dust, it might be something else, but there is definitely a spot!
Clear and sharp and they all are ignoring you making them look like little statues. Personally, I would not have minded a bit of a nip up on the grass but that is all about artistic prerogative and I bow to yours.
Howdie stranger!
