i think it could have been amazing if the photo of the dad was staring straight ahead. Would have improved the mimick to a larger extent. It is a nice photo however.

Each time I see this on the front page... the more I like It! I really think this is an amazing capture... it's one of those that I wished I had taken, and probably one that I will try in the future! good inspiration. if I were to critique I would wish that the backgound blur was maybe just a slight touch cleaner. The current DOF really seperates the photo from ur pops( and that is good!) but for some reason I would like just a bit more detail on the man that he is now... about 4.??ish instead of 2.8 maybe? I think he looks like a good man. (& he looks a little bit like Bill Clinton could look in a few years)

Well...I don't know. I kinda feel bad not giving it a 10 as it's a great photo and a great idea. It's just not jumping out at me. Screw it: 10

There's a lot to like: the sepia, DOF, square crop. The only thing that's bothering me is the dodge on the lower left side of his face. Wait, this is Basic, that can't be a dodge ... must have been the lighting. Still, wonderful entry!

Wow, very nice portrait. I love the use of DOF, it really makes the picture powerful. I also like it in black and white. There's kind of a white shadow behind his right ear, but I'm not one to nitpick on little things like that. Awesome photo, very well executed. 9

I love the concept of this photo.
The only thing that bugs me about it (its a personal thing) is that I would have preferred the photo to be out of focus and the man in focus. Since the man represents the present and the photo is the past. I still gave this a 8
