This is great Jano. It likes like some sort of torture room. One with head down, one begging someone outside for help. I would think that the glass of wine would help. -Doug

Yes, good story and OOF setting. Well done Jano. ~Brent

Good story telling type shot Jano - it makes one wonder about what is going on in this family's life. The subject lends itself very well to being OOF. CJ

In addition to agreeing with the previous comments, I have to say that I'm impressed with how well all the elements work together, esp. your use of dark and light. Well done, Jano. --Mary Anne

Ohh... DEEP, Jano! Both are trying to escape in their own way. Lovely interpretation of it. ~Lydia

Thanks ! Although this topic really didn't peak my interest (only that we find that focus in photography is everything and that's what we strive for....) I also found it challenging to come up with a scenario that was interesting yet oof. This particular shot kept creeping into my mind so I put it to the test. I'm honored you like it. jano

Yes this is a very blokey image. The boy in the background adds a real tension to the picy. Excellent picy.

this is excellent, and unlike what I've seen you post before. So many interesting elements and great for the challenge - Penny Street

Jano, this is really good especially since it accomplishes what most of us were trying but fell short - to provide comprehensible content in spite of, or better, enhanced by the oof component. This is great telling two kinds of "escapism". Seems candid or well staged. Works either way. -tv
