Daniel, I really like this shot. Nice juxtaposition of mother and son...beautiful in B&W. The DOF is really effective here. MFC

Thanks, shu, for commenting! I feel the same: That’s why I like the mother’s hand being in focus on the son’s shoulder. — db.

Daniel, I like all three of your entries, but I think this is my favorite. Interesting how their expressions are almost alike! And I really like the good use of shallow DOF. Helen

I've seen these shots before, Daniel, and still like them - especial this one. Perfect in B&W.

Great capture - I really like this amount of DOF - the mother is in focus enough that her expression can still be seen, but the son stands out as the subject of the photo. I like your choice of black/white, also.
