Great idea! I love how you focused on the stories rather than directly on the person. Very nice lighting and composition.

I understand your intent, however I hate blurry faces in a photo. I'd rather see both the foreground and background in focus.

Better if the focus was on Grandpa, but I like the concept and the composition.

A sweet shot. Not sure it counts as a portrait, but nice, nonetheless.
