Promenade

The old mammals get pushed around. Fun shot.

this is rich work Jack, real, surreal, poignant and bizarre, deeply humane Felliniesque moment!

Poignant at different levels. 

Jack, this is perfectly composed. Did they pose for you? There are many levels of interest here. Very nice.

Attention and care for all in this unusual wonderful scene of life.  Superbly taken photograph.

"The day of the sun is like the day of a king. It is a promenade in the morning, a sitting on the throne at noon, a pageant in the evening."

Dynamic geometry

Too much love and drama for a single frame... 

What a study in contrasts!

Marvelous Indeed! Nice layering of the different elements in the scene Jack. I'm wondering if the young man is wearing a mask because the dog is gaseous :=}

"Too much love and drama for a single frame..."... ;-)... Bulent's right, sensei, this is a GREAT picture. I said Felliniesque earlier, and certainly that gentility is everywhere in the frame, but it's also Arbuesque, with that same unflinching harsh grasp of photographing things as they are --- all said: an accomplished complex fine photograph.

Too many good critiques already to be able to add something novel to the discussion, Carlos summed it up perfectly for me already; exactly as he said.

A really interesting procession Jack! Such interesting expressions on each face, including the dog!! Processing is excellent.
