He took this picture nearly 50 years ago. It is without a doubt my all time favorite picture. We do not know the child in the picture/. The image is from just outside Bangkok Thailand. What do you think? Is this a classic picture?

Yes, that’s an amazing photo. So detailed (look at the drops of water glistening on the child’s hair!), and you don’t know if the baby is happy or sad. Terrific photo. Should be entered in a photo contest, because I’m sure it’d win!

@DocAndersen I love the picture. Thank you for explaining that you did not know the child. I bet the child caught your father's eye and maybe the child reminded him of you when you were little.

that is very possible, I hadn't really thought about that.

It's a very beautiful picture and your Dad is a very good photographer

I think you should had watermarked it before posting because someone might steal it and use it on their site, it's not late, I think you can do it now and repost the picture later on. Hope you don't mind my suggestin
