I can only wish that one day I will be able to take a shot like this. I loved how natural both subjects were in this pic.

My favorite shot of the challenge - made even better when I noticed it was taken in Durban. I spent alot of time with my grandparents in Durban North so this really makes me think "Family".

Nice shot! I really like the participation of the son helping the father out. The lighting is very nice, and the use of color, or no-color, was well done. Congratulations.

i think the title ruins it a bit
some things u have to leave to the viewer especially when they are so obvious
just my opinion

I like the sharpness and claity of the shot ... in this case the negative empty space isn't non productive but, for my taste a bit too much but, I like the shot.

This is without competition, my favorite photo in this challenge. I love it. It looks so unposed, and. . . .let's see what else do I love about it besides how natural it looks: the sepia tones, how sharp and focused it is, how cute the people are (sorry, that helps too, you know how beauty sells :), and the composition. There are probably other things, but that's enough to hope this one gets blue in my book. 10

Really captured the moment. There's nothing like a child's enthusiasm. Great composition. You obviously know what you're doing. One of the best, IMO.

Very nice. I wish the waves weren't so blanched out. Maybe darken the whole image a tad (but that's just me). The composition is great.
