No fucking description, what do you want me to write? The guy's son just died. And I took a picture of him, still mourning for him. And I feel like crap for having done that.

Daily DeviationMy boy just died... II BW by *borissov You can see it all even without seeing his face. This -- in my opinion -- is a powerful photo. Making difficult photos at difficult times is what it's all about. This deviant made something amazing. (Suggested by ~glitterdarkstar and Featured by `cweeks)

Green is cool :nod:
Me either except for the fact that it's an extremely powerful image, probably because i know it's real and not staged.

i love photos like this one, b&w + small depth of field + very emotional, but i don't think that capturing someone's tragedy is fine.
Intense feelings... Great portrait of a terrible moment...

I think there's no problem about capturing this kind of situations... life's like this... The son will not resurrect if you don't take the photo...

Great job! :+fav:

Simply complex, plainly multifaceted, obscurely popular...
I can feel the sadness from this powerful image :peace:

This picture is great : depth, contrast, details, subject. The only drawback is that it's real and that you captured this picture...
But, I :+fav: it, it's a good example of what is photojournalism (even if considering the drawbacks...).
