Father and Son Waiting in a Sushi Restaurant

Strong image and story Jack

Br, Herman

Well done Jack, I like the seating area with the white backdrop high lighting our family nicely. The angle is good as well letting the shot expand out into the dinning room.

Well done , Jack!

Regards,

Mário

Well captured true to life moment Jack. It has intimacy and feeling.

BR, Holger

touching moment if you had to describe love to someone who didnt know how to define it who never felt it... this photo would  be all you would need to show them

Jack,  The explicit title is important as you say and you' ve picked a good one, but with all respect it doesn't surpass the quality of this superb photograph.  What always amazes me with your work is both on technical and sensibility aspects that you manage to grasp in each of your snaps.  Your framing and compositional constructions are second to none, while the lighting which I personally often struggle with; for you is a gift and however delicate you handle it with absolute perfection. In this one, I really like this enchanting parent and child intimacy and the world seems to have stopped just for them.  It looks simple but it's exquisite.  Best regards,

Artistically rendered life photo with great composition and everything, bravo Jack!

Best regards

The pose of the kid brings a little bit of humour to this perfectly captured scene. The frame is full of details but vignetting draws the viewer attention away from less important components in the corners straight to the subject in the centre. A photo about being together filled with the atmospere of the 60s.

Indeed a good choice to have a more explicit title on this one - without it, it would invite a huge number of possibilities, and not all of them equally wanted.

There is a great tenderness to this image, not only in the gesture, the pose of the young boy, but also tonality, the 'focus' on the action thanks to vignetting, an enormous sense of calmth from the surroundings, especially the lovely reflection on the floor left. Mesmerising image, maybe not full of tension or ambiguous (thanks to its title), but comforting, relaxing. It's a nice place to be.

via the atmosphere you project, one can feel how touching and intimate this moment is. lovely, Jack. ;-} dp

I like the strong contrast and showing some of the background enough to give context to the interaction.

Nice, Jack.  I must have missed this one the last time I came through "Prodigal...".  I like the way the pair seem to be framed in that halo of light.
