Comment by shoot_2gratify:
Admittedly, I was more then a little intrigued by your title as it relates to grief for your father. Your picture evokes quite a bit of emotion… pain and sorrow still. The gesture of your hands placed over your nose and mouth implies an effort to stop or hide. Its ok, our father's have always played such an important part in our lives, and they will continue to do so long after their pasting.

I find that one of the most genuine and fascinating aspects of photography to be that a single picture (i.e. glimpse of a moment in time) has the ability to evoke such emotion, be it joy or sorrow, and that is truly exceptional. I believe that as we capture these moments we measure their success based on many factors… of these the most powerful are splendor & emotion. That sir you have achieved with your self-portrait revisited.

Thank you for sharing a glimpse of your travels in this journey called life.

Best regards,

C.J.Gilreath

wonderfull capture. I feel you show separation in so many levels it's amazing, age, era, wealth, and background to name a few. Love the sepia tone and the slight grain that you used in the shot. Just great I wouldn't change a thing..

I don't know how this is going to fare, but I think it's an extremely strong image and a very unusual take on the challenge. I wish it luck.
