    A special moment with Dad

    This was taken a few weeks ago in the St. Lawrence Market, the wonderful fresh food market here in Toronto.
    I often go there because on Saturdays it is a sea of humanity and a target rich photo environment.
    I noticed the father showing his young son the live Lobsters which brought back old memories of my father doing the same thing with me when I was about the same age as the boy.
    And I grabbed this shot.

    This image works on so many levels including emotional, nicely done.

    Thanks all for the comments.
    Izzie,
    You are correct. there is some lens distortion which up until about five minutes ago I didn't know how to fix in my new Photoshop CC version.
    However I did just learn how to perform lens corrections for my film gear and I'll fool with it tonight when I get home and re-post.

    A great slice-of-life shot.
