Tall More Than My Mother Photographer Katsuhisa Bansho Camera used Caplio GX8
Photographer's comments
When we measured my son's height for the first time in awhile, we found he had passed his mother. I captured the photo of my somewhat self-conscious son and his mother with my compact GX8. An important moment for my family.
Reason for selection
I find the image of the mother stretching to measure the height of her son quite heartwarming. It brings to mind the old song about comparing heights "The Scratch on the Column Is Two Years Old..." I wonder if there are any scratch marks on the column marking the son's height when he was small? Which reminds me of the many height-marking scratches on the column in my own childhood home.(Judge:Kazuo UNNO)
