PAPA WAS A ROLLIN' STONE, a photo from Distrito Federal, Center-West

Photographer's Note

It was a Monday morning, the park should be empty, but I was surprised because it was filled with thousands of people, but the next day would be national holiday and I guess many people "killed" the Monday at work to extend the holiday. Anyway Bras匀ia has very cheap hotels during weekends and holidays because the politicians fly away from the city in such days and people who want to meet them stay at home.
I found this young couple taking photos and enjoying the holidays with their babies. It was a pity the supports of the stairs covering the man, but the personages are well positioned. This made me remember a famous song "Papa was a rollin' stone" by The Templations. But I guess this young daddy wasn't bad as the father of the song. Check the song if you don't know it:

Era manh� de segunda-feira e fiquei surpreso ao encontrar o parque cheio de gente, havia um feriado no dia seguinte e acho que as pessoas juntaram o mesmo ao domingo.
Curiosamente Bras匀ia tem hot駟s mais baratos durante fins de semana e feriados, pois os pol咜icos voltam pra suas terras enquanto as pessoas que os procuram n縊 aparecem nos fins de semana.
Esse jovem casal aproveitava o parque, lembrei-me de uma famosa can鈬o "Papa was a rolling' stone", mas obviamente esse pai � bem melhor que aquele da can鈬o. Veja o link abaixo se n縊s e lembra da m俍ica:

Hello Jorge,
It was a pity to have the stairs from this angle, but we still see an amusing and nice scene of the family having fun in different ways. It's a lively and colourful glimpse of daily life.
Best regards,
Gert

Hi Jorge,

You have captured well a daily life scene when a father is impressing his children. The point of view is showing the details of the trees. Have a nice day.

Hello Jorge,
A very nice impression you spotted here from the park where the father was showing off for his wife and one of his children, even though the other one seemed to be more interested in the water. Very well seen and timed!
