This is the first time I have ever posted a portrait, so I m interested in how I did. The first is at the Colosseum, my 16 year old son is facing the interior of arena, clearly not listening to the guide.
When we were on top of the Duomo (go in November, we were basically alone ) and my wife and I were ready to go, we found him sitting there, so we left him alone and went to the other side.
During our trip, he was constantly trying to mess with my photo attempts (because I was taking it so seriously) and this was one his most memorable efforts.

Thanks for looking.

Greg- I seldom comment about family shots because of the personal nature of the genre.
In this case I will, because your son looks like a suitably wacky teenager who seemed determined to have his own trip abroad even though it was with Ma and Pa .
And that last shot really cracks me up- although I don't know how much credit I can give to you for it .
All-in-all, I'd say you done good, dad.

Hi Greg,
It is the second shot that cracked me up, such a magnificent view and he appears bored out of his brain sitting there
Cheers Ray
I can relate. I remember travelling thru DC with my son in his teens. My wife and I pointing out the sites as we drove by. His head in a book!
Second works best for me.
First is too soft for my taste.
