Digital Divide

A father-daughter moment – dad browsing with his iPhone and daughter browsing “old school.”

Sometimes a “moment” just happens.  This photo was taken in May of 2011 while visiting family.  There were a number of other people in the room, visiting, laughing and having a good time.  I was down on the floor focusing my photographic effort on the little girl, snapping pictures and didn’t really notice the symmetry between her and her father in the background until I saw it on my computer screen.

This image actually took a good deal of work and digital magic. Beyond converting it to monochrome, there was another person in the shot and a fourth person’s foot that I had to remove to isolate my subjects.
