This is fantastic, Vieri. It has all the qualities necessary to elevate it from a snapshot into something much more enduring.

Thank you very much for your nice comments! indeed not an easy decision, both faces were quite interesting, but both as a face and as a story I figured that focussing on the old man was the right thing to do... I guess it might have been working fine the other way round too, though. Thanks again!

Vieri,

This is a prize winner! If that kid had smaller ears the picture wouldn't be quite as perfect LOL

I totally agree with you Wilfredo, the ears are a big part of the whole appeal of the shot...

Remarkable. I would have probably taken a picture with focus on the boy and then one with focus on the old man, and then decided later... But this works beautifully. It is more unusual this way, very original and it stays with you a long time after seeing it.
