Splendid capture!
I hope you know who this is and can get them a copy of this shot as it's precious beyond words. If not, you may be kicking yourself in the butt as I am now for not getting the names of people I shot during this challenge.
Well Done - bumping up to 9.

Too bad you couldnt get an agle on the kid if he was sleeping too but that would have been a moment father and son napping.

This is very sweet. Perhaps the tonal range could be a tad richer on the subjects themselves. The placement of the profile against the white windbreaker is very nice.

This is a great shot, staged or no. It oozes father son relations and the DOF does its job very nicely. Perhaps a bit too much shadow in the shoulder/chest area. This area should not be muddied as the contact would be even more solidly portrayed. The hand position around the throat looks out of place, perhaps would clone that out. For now a 7.
