Tina:

I really enjoy your work and think it is excellent but this image 
doesn't  do much for me. The stocking cap is a real distraction. The 
fact that dad's eyes can't  be seen is troubling and the watch on the 
arm even more so. You've lost image area on top but leave much too much 
on the bottom. Without the information  "call to prayer" there is 
nothing making a visual statement about Muslims, prayer or fatherly love 
and pride.

It seems as if I may be the only one on the LUG not raving about the 
image but being honest is one of my grievous faults. ( sometimes I seem 
to grow them like hair)

Your humble servant in honesty

Walt
