my husband with his dad... i don't like contrived "posed" pictures very much, this one actually just happened...minor crop and slightly adjusted saturation and contrast...

A different interpretation of the challenge. A Nice creative idea witha pretty powerful message. Good composition. The lighting could be better. I'd like to see more light on the subjects faces.
Had a nice chuckle with your picture. LOVE the way you composed it with the two pictures on the wall, each with a small corner behind one of the two men. I wish the man on th left were better lit on his face (perhaps with something bounced?). If this was posed, nice job. If it's a candid, Way To Go!
Interesting shot. B&W might had helped the mood of this shot, focusing more interest on the 2 figures instead of the surrounding colors. Just my opinion. I like that the framed photos of seemlingly silent/deserted streets in the background mimic the silence between the 2 men. Nice. :)
Excellent representation of the theme.
Visually, suffers from lighting and colour balance - could do with more even lighting over walls, softer, to reduce shine on heads, and less orangey.
Also, because of low viewpoint you have a bit of a parallax thing going on which the lines of the frames really emphasise.
I do like the two pictures on the wall - they kind of echo the two men beneath.
