There is nothing wrong with staging a photo. On the contrary: you put thought into it, you had an idea, and you executed it consistently and with sensitivity. That is a creative process—far more than a snapshot, which is largely a matter of chance.
I absolutely love this entry! It’s a perfect composition. Love the DOF and your concept and the connection you share with your son. Beautiful work of art! Congratulations.
Your photography skills are 2nd (3rd!) to none. Your entry is made even more emotive by the personal nature of the composition as stated in your description. Congrats on the well deserved ribbon.
Well thought out composition for the challenge with nice lighting and color. Something I truly love about this and your work is the natural unedited look of all your images. Beautiful work, Congratulations!
